  3. Luminous flux - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_flux

    Luminous flux (in lumens) is a measure of the total amount of light a lamp puts out. The luminous intensity (in candelas) is a measure of how bright the beam in a particular direction is. If a lamp has a 1 lumen bulb and the optics of the lamp are set up to focus the light evenly into a 1 steradian beam, then the beam would have a luminous ...

  4. High-CRI LED lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-CRI_LED_lighting

    High-CRI LED lighting is a light-emitting diode (LED) lighting source that offers a high color rendering index (CRI). CRI is a quantitative measure of a light's ability to reproduce the colors of objects faithfully in comparison with an ideal or natural light source. In general terms, CRI is a measure of a light source's ability to show object ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Incandescent_light_bulb

    Incandescent light bulb. A 230-volt incandescent light bulb with a medium-sized E27 (Edison 27 mm) male screw base. The filament is visible as the mostly horizontal line between the vertical supply wires. A scanning electron microscope image of the tungsten filament of an incandescent light bulb. Elaborate light in Denver, Colorado.

  6. Luminous intensity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_intensity

    Luminous intensity. In photometry, luminous intensity is a measure of the wavelength -weighted power emitted by a light source in a particular direction per unit solid angle, based on the luminosity function, a standardized model of the sensitivity of the human eye. The SI unit of luminous intensity is the candela (cd), an SI base unit.

  8. List of light sources - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_light_sources

    This is a list of sources of light, the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum.Light sources produce photons from another energy source, such as heat, chemical reactions, or conversion of mass or a different frequency of electromagnetic energy, and include light bulbs and stars like the Sun. Reflectors (such as the moon, cat's eyes, and mirrors) do not actually produce the light that ...

  9. Luminous efficacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_efficacy

    Luminous efficacy is a measure of how well a light source produces visible light. It is the ratio of luminous flux to power, measured in lumens per watt in the International System of Units (SI). Depending on context, the power can be either the radiant flux of the source's output, or it can be the total power (electric power, chemical energy ...
