In photometric quantities every wavelength is weighted according to how sensitive the human eye is to it, while radiometric quantities use unweighted absolute power. For example, the eye responds much more strongly to green light than to red, so a green source will have greater luminous flux than a red source with the same radiant flux would.
Comparison of photometric and radiometric quantities. Radiometry is a set of techniques for measuring electromagnetic radiation, including visible light.Radiometric techniques in optics characterize the distribution of the radiation's power in space, as opposed to photometric techniques, which characterize the light's interaction with the human eye.
cd/m 2 (= lm/(sr⋅m 2)) L −2 ⋅J: Luminous flux per unit solid angle per unit projected source area. The candela per square metre is sometimes called the nit. Illuminance: E v: lux (= lumen per square metre) lx (= lm/m 2) L −2 ⋅J: Luminous flux incident on a surface Luminous exitance, luminous emittance M v: lumen per square metre lm/m ...
For each photometric system a set of primary standard stars is provided. A commonly adopted standardized photometric system is the Johnson-Morgan or UBV photometric system (1953). At present, there are more than 200 photometric systems. [citation needed] Photometric systems are usually characterized according to the widths of their passbands:
An example of visual photometry from Photometria. The vertical screen produces field EFDC illuminated by the single candle and adjacent field GFDB illuminated by two candles. The candle distances are changed until the brightness on either side of FD is the same. The relative illuminating power can then be determined from the candle distances. 2.
The Field of view of a lens is limited by the size of the image plane and the focal length of the lens. The relationship between a location on the image and a location on the object is y = f*tan(θ), where y is the max extent of the image plane, f is the focal length of the lens and θ is the field of view.
3D reconstruction of the general anatomy of the right side view of a small marine slug Pseudunela viatoris. In computer vision and computer graphics, 3D reconstruction is the process of capturing the shape and appearance of real objects. This process can be accomplished either by active or passive methods.
