- Select the target unit as candela per square foot
- Click convert to obtain the equivalent luminance value
- Use the conversion factor of 1 foot-lambert = 0.3183098862 candela per square foot for manual calculations if needed
Key Features
- Converts luminance measurements between foot-lambert and candela per square foot
- Supports imperial unit conversions relevant to display and projection brightness
- Provides practical examples for quick reference
- Browser-based and easy to use without additional software
Examples
- 5 foot-lamberts converts to 1.591549431 candela per square foot
- 10 foot-lamberts converts to 3.183098862 candela per square foot
Common Use Cases
- Specifying and measuring projected-screen brightness in cinemas and home theaters
- Designing and testing theater projection systems
- Calibrating display brightness where imperial units are standard
- Lighting design and signage assessments that use square-foot area units
Tips & Best Practices
- Ensure consistent measurement of projected area when using foot-lambert values
- Use precise calculations involving the factor 1/π for accurate conversions
- Confirm instrument calibration to maintain measurement reliability
- Remember that both units are imperial and may require conversion for international standards
Limitations
- Precision is essential due to the 1/π factor in foot-lambert definitions
- Imperial units like these are less common globally, requiring extra conversion steps when working internationally
- Measurement depends on consistent area definitions and instrument calibration
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is the foot-lambert used for?
- Foot-lambert measures luminance, often to specify projected screen brightness in cinemas and home theater calibration.
- How do foot-lambert and candela per square foot relate?
- One foot-lambert equals approximately 0.3183 candela per square foot, both expressing luminous intensity per unit area.
- Why might I convert between these two units?
- Converting helps compare and calibrate luminance values in systems or specifications that use different but related imperial units.
Key Terminology
- Foot-lambert [fL]
- An imperial luminance unit measuring luminous intensity per projected area; one foot-lambert equals 1/π candela per square foot.
- Candela per square foot
- A luminance unit expressing brightness as luminous intensity per square foot; used commonly in imperial measurement contexts.
- Luminance
- The measurement of luminous intensity emitted or reflected from a surface per unit area.
