Frequently Asked Questions
- What does candela per square inch measure?
- Candela per square inch measures luminance, indicating luminous intensity emitted or reflected per square inch of surface area.
- Why convert candela per square inch to apostilb?
- The conversion helps reinterpret luminance values from imperial units into historical photometric units used in older specifications and calibration standards.
- Is apostilb still commonly used in modern lighting?
- No, apostilb is a historical unit with limited use today; most modern photometry prefers SI units like candela per square meter.
Key Terminology
- Candela per Square Inch
- A unit of luminance representing luminous intensity per square inch of surface area used in photometric and display engineering.
- Apostilb
- A non-SI, historical unit of luminance equal to 1/π candela per square meter, traditionally used in older photometric specifications.
- Luminance
- A measure of luminous intensity emitted or reflected from a surface per unit area in a specified direction.
