  2. Lumen (unit) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumen_(unit)

    The lumen (symbol: lm) is the unit of luminous flux, a measure of the perceived power of visible light emitted by a source, in the International System of Units (SI). Luminous flux differs from power ( radiant flux ), which encompasses all electromagnetic waves emitted, including non-visible ones such as thermal radiation ( infrared ).

  3. Exposure value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exposure_value

    Popular exposure chart type, showing exposure values EV (red lines) as combinations of aperture and shutter speed values. The green lines are sample program lines, by which a digital camera automatically selects both the shutter speed and the aperture for given exposure value (brightness of light), when set to Program mode (P).

  4. 1951 USAF resolution test chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../1951_USAF_resolution_test_chart

    A 1951 USAF resolution test chart is a microscopic optical resolution test device originally defined by the U.S. Air Force MIL-STD-150A standard of 1951. The design provides numerous small target shapes exhibiting a stepped assortment of precise spatial frequency specimens.

  5. Luminous efficacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_efficacy

    Luminous efficacy can be normalized by the maximum possible luminous efficacy to a dimensionless quantity called luminous efficiency.The distinction between efficacy and efficiency is not always carefully maintained in published sources, so it is not uncommon to see "efficiencies" expressed in lumens per watt, or "efficacies" expressed as a percentage.

  6. CRT projector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CRT_projector

    Absolute ANSI brightness achievable with CRT projectors is lower than with comparable lamp or laser illuminated LCD, LcOS and DLP projectors. As an example, the brightest CRT projectors for home use were capable of 1,500 ANSI lumens. In contrast, as of 2020 projectors for home use are capable of 2,600 or more lumens. [13]

  7. Guide number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guide_number

    Unit: Lumen⋅second Definition: In the context of flash devices, is the measure of the total energy, or quantity, of eye-adjusted visible light emitted over a period of time. In common vernacular, it is the total amount of light released over the course of a flash. Illuminance Symbol: E v Unit: Lux (lumens per square meter)

    The ANSI/APSP (Association of Pool & Spa Professionals) standards used for pools, spas, hot tubs, barriers, and suction entrapment avoidance. The ANSI/HI (Hydraulic Institute) standards used for pumps. The ANSI for eye protection is Z87.1, which gives a specific impact resistance rating to the eyewear. This standard is commonly used for shop ...

  9. Unified Code for Units of Measure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unified_Code_for_Units_of...

    The code set includes all units defined in ISO 1000, ISO 2955-1983, [3] [a] ANSI X3.50-1986, [4] [b] HL7 and ENV 12435, and explicitly and verifiably addresses the naming conflicts and ambiguities in those standards to resolve them.
