lumeniksi
Lumeniksi is a term that refers to a unit of measurement used to quantify the amount of visible light emitted by a source. The term is derived from the Latin word "lumen," which means light. In the field of photometry, lumeniksi is used to describe the total quantity of visible light emitted by a light source, taking into account the sensitivity of the human eye to different wavelengths of light. This unit is particularly useful in the design and evaluation of lighting systems, as it provides a standardized way to compare the brightness of different light sources. Lumeniksi is defined as the amount of light that falls on a surface from a point source, one candela per steradian, at a distance of one meter. It is important to note that lumeniksi is distinct from lux, another unit of measurement used in photometry, which quantifies the illuminance, or amount of light falling on a surface. While lumeniksi measures the total light output of a source, lux measures the light's intensity on a given area. The use of lumeniksi allows for a more accurate and consistent assessment of lighting quality and efficiency in various applications, from residential and commercial settings to outdoor and industrial environments.
