Frequently Asked Questions
- What does 1 lambert represent in candela per square centimetre?
- 1 lambert equals 1 divided by π candela per square centimetre, making it a CGS unit of luminance.
- Where is candela per square foot commonly used?
- Candela per square foot is widely used in contexts measuring luminance with imperial units, such as display brightness and theater projection.
- Why convert from lambert to candela per square foot?
- To translate older CGS-based luminance values into practical imperial units for calibration and specification in optical and lighting applications.
Key Terminology
- Lambert [L]
- A non-SI CGS unit of luminance that equals 1 divided by π candela per square centimetre, used historically for surface brightness.
- Candela per square foot
- An imperial luminance unit representing luminous intensity emitted or reflected per square foot area.
- Luminance
- The measurement of luminous intensity per unit area of light-emitting or reflecting surfaces.
