High brightness sunlight readable monitors are typically used commercially in kiosks, vending systems, pipeline inspection systems, outdoor digital signage and advertising, in sports stadiums, in military vehicles, on ships for navigation systems, on bus and train platforms, and much more.
The nit (symbol: nt) is a non-SI name also used for this unit (1 nt = 1 cd/m 2). [1] The term nit is believed to come from the Latin word nitēre, "to shine". [2] As a measure of light emitted per unit area, this unit is frequently used to specify the brightness of a display device. The sRGB spec for monitors targets 80 cd/m 2. [3]

Brightness is the term for the subjective impression of the objective luminance measurement standard (see Objectivity (science) § Objectivity in measurement for the importance of this contrast). The SI unit for luminance is candela per square metre (cd/m 2). A non-SI term for the same unit is the nit.
Colorado won the NIT in 1940 but subsequently finished fourth in the NCAA West Region. [21] In 1944, Utah lost its first game in the NIT but then proceeded to win not only the NCAA tournament, but also the subsequent Red Cross War Charities benefit game in which they defeated NIT champion St. John's at Madison Square Garden.
(The S 10 unit is defined as the surface brightness of a star whose V-magnitude is 10 and whose light is smeared over one square degree, or 27.78 mag arcsec −2.) The total sky brightness in zenith is therefore ~220 S 10 or 21.9 mag/arcsec² in the V-band. Note that the contributions from Airglow and Zodiacal light vary with the time of year ...

A solution of 4-nitrophenol appears colorless below pH 5.4 and yellow above pH 7.5. [3] This color-changing property makes this compound useful as a pH indicator . The yellow color of the 4-nitrophenolate form (or 4-nitro phenoxide ) is due to a maximum of absorbance at 405 nm (ε = 18.3 to 18.4 mM −1 cm −1 in strong alkali). [ 4 ]
