Units of light (luminous intensity (cd), luminous flux (lm), illuminance (lux), luminance (nit), luminance efficiency (lm/W)) Luminous intensity (cd, candela): The intensity of visible light emitted in a specific direction from a light source. Luminous flux (lm, lumen): The total amount of visible light emitted from a light source. Illuminance (lux, lux): The amount of light that enters the unit area of an object. Luminance (nit, nit): The brightness of light radiated from a light source. Luminance efficiency (lm/W: lumen per watt): The amount of light discharged per unit power applied.
