Converting from Foot-lambert (fL) to Candela per Square Inch (cd/in²) | Luminance

What is Foot-lambert (fL)

Foot-lambert (fL) is a unit of luminance that measures the amount of light emitted or reflected from a surface. It is commonly used in the field of lighting design to evaluate the brightness of displays, projectors, and signs.

What is Candela per Square Inch (cd/in²)

Candela per Square Inch (cd/in²) is another unit of luminance that measures the intensity of light on a surface area. It is often used in engineering and technology, especially in the calibration of light sensors and optical devices.
