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]
From the late 1990s to mid-2000s, Acer had computer factories in Europe. The business area was the whole EMEA. In the Netherlands under the name of Acer IMS bv, there were two factories: Acer laptop factory in Den Bosch and Acer and IBM desktop factory in Tilburg. [43] [44] Acer also had facilities in Germany under the name of IMS in Ahrensburg ...

Luminance is used in the video industry to characterize the brightness of displays. A typical computer display emits between 50 and 300 cd/m 2. The sun has a luminance of about 1.6 × 10 9 cd/m 2 at noon. [3] Luminance is invariant in geometric optics. [4]
The lux (symbol: lx) is the unit of illuminance, or luminous flux per unit area, in the International System of Units (SI). [1] [2] It is equal to one lumen per square metre.In photometry, this is used as a measure of the irradiance, as perceived by the spectrally unequally responding human eye, of light that hits or passes through a surface.
Brightness is an attribute of visual perception in which a source appears to be radiating or reflecting light. [1] In other words, brightness is the perception elicited by the luminance of a visual target. The perception is not linear to luminance, and relies on the context of the viewing environment (for example, see White's illusion).
A truly dark sky has a surface brightness of 2 × 10 −4 cd m −2 or 21.8 mag arcsec −2. [9] [clarification needed] The peak surface brightness of the central region of the Orion Nebula is about 17 Mag/arcsec 2 (about 14 milli nits) and the outer bluish glow has a peak surface brightness of 21.3 Mag/arcsec 2 (about 0.27 millinits).
