What Is This Tool?
This converter allows you to change luminance measurements from lumen/square foot/steradian, a customary unit for brightness in larger outdoor or architectural settings, into candela/square centimeter, a smaller-scale unit commonly used for high-intensity displays and precise luminance specifications.
How to Use This Tool?
- Enter the luminance value in lumen/square foot/steradian
- Select lumen/square foot/steradian as the source unit
- Choose candela/square centimeter as the target unit
- Click convert to obtain the equivalent luminance value
- Use the output value for lighting or display design purposes
Key Features
- Converts luminance values between lumen/square foot/steradian and candela/square centimeter
- Uses a specific conversion factor for accurate translation of brightness units
- Supports measuring brightness for both large outdoor displays and small light-emitting surfaces
- Browser-based, easy to use, requiring no downloads
- Ideal for lighting designers, display engineers, and photometric calibration experts
Examples
- 10 lumen/square foot/steradian converts to approximately 0.01076391 candela/square centimeter
- 100 lumen/square foot/steradian converts to approximately 0.1076391 candela/square centimeter
Common Use Cases
- Specifying or measuring brightness for outdoor signs and billboards using customary U.S. area units
- Assessing architectural and lighting design for glare control and comfort in projects with foot-based units
- Calibrating photometers reporting luminance in non-SI customary units
- Evaluating brightness of small display elements such as LED indicators and camera viewfinders
- Describing luminance characteristics of CRT phosphors, OLED subpixels, and other display components
- Characterizing instrument panel and surgical lamp luminance with compact emitting areas
Tips & Best Practices
- Double-check unit selections when converting between customary and non-SI derived units
- Be mindful of the scale differences to correctly interpret very small converted numeric values
- Use calibrated instruments suitable for the specific unit scale of luminance measurement
- Leverage this converter to ensure consistency between large-area outdoor lighting data and small-scale display specifications
Limitations
- Differences in measurement scale and unit systems require careful attention to context
- Small conversion factors can produce very small numerical results needing sensitive instrumentation
- Precision depends on understanding the specific luminance applications and unit definitions to avoid misinterpretation
Frequently Asked Questions
- What does lumen/square foot/steradian measure?
- It measures luminance as luminous flux per unit area per steradian, indicating brightness emitted or reflected by a surface in a specific direction using customary U.S. area units.
- Why convert lumen/square foot/steradian to candela/square centimeter?
- Converting allows brightness data measured over larger areas in customary units to be expressed in smaller, precise units ideal for high-intensity displays and detailed engineering.
- Are lumen/square foot/steradian and candela/square centimeter SI units?
- No, lumen/square foot/steradian is a non-SI customary unit, and candela/square centimeter is a non-SI derived unit commonly used for specific luminance applications.
Key Terminology
- Lumen/square foot/steradian
- A non-SI luminance unit expressing luminous flux per unit area per unit solid angle, commonly used with customary U.S. area units.
- Candela/square centimeter
- A non-SI derived luminance unit expressing luminous intensity per projected surface area, suited for small emitting areas.
- Luminance
- A measure of brightness representing luminous intensity emitted or reflected from a surface in a given direction per unit area.
