Frequently Asked Questions
- What does lumen per square meter measure?
- It measures illuminance as the luminous flux incident uniformly on one square meter of a surface, equivalent to lux.
- Why convert from lumen/square meter to lumen/square centimeter?
- To evaluate light intensity over much smaller surface areas like LED dies or microscope slides for detailed brightness analysis.
- Can this tool be used for photography lighting settings?
- Yes, it helps measure and adjust exposure levels in photography and cinematography accurately.
Key Terminology
- Lumen per square meter (lm/m^2)
- The illuminance unit representing one lumen of luminous flux uniformly falling on one square meter of surface, equivalent to lux.
- Lumen per square centimeter
- A photometric unit measuring luminous flux incident on one square centimeter, used for small-scale brightness evaluation.
- Illuminance
- A measure of the amount of visible light illuminating a surface, weighted by the human eye’s photopic response.
