Integrating Spheres and Applications**  * Integrating sphere, as its name implies, is a spherical device with a reflective coating applied to its inside surface. A source of light is normally placed inside it and it will measure the total flux output of the source. It basically collects all the beams...

Integrating Sphere Applications** * An integrating sphere is a spherical chamber whose internal surface is coated with highly reflective diffusing material. It has an input port where lamps can be inserted and an exit port where detectors can be installed. There are several applications that require the use of an...

How do You Measure Light? ** * When one wants to measure the quantity of light, one has to refer to five metrics or parameters that describe it. This is all part of the science of photometry, which deals with the quantification of the amount of light. There is also...

Over the past decade, LED technology has experienced significant advancements, and as a result LED lighting has been increasingly adopted. In order to determine a good luminous environment when employing LED lighting, it is suggested that Gamut Area Index (GAI) be used as a measurement. In principle, GAI is usually...

Horticulture is the branch of agriculture that deals with science, art, technology and business of plant cultivation. Role of light illumination for plant growth is an important factor that needs to be considered and improved. The Photosynthesis process in plants uses water, carbon dioxide intake and incident light as the...

* *HERE’S HOW TO TELL THE DIFFERENCE* * Today I want to talk about LEDs and CRI. You see not all LEDs were created equal. Most of the time when we talk about LEDs we talk brightness and color temperature, and that makes sense as those are easily measured and...
