Converting from Foot-lambert (fL) to Kilocandela per Square Meter (kcd/m²) | 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 and photography to determine the brightness of a specific area.

What is Kilocandela per Square Meter (kcd/m²)

Kilocandela per Square Meter (kcd/m²) is a unit of luminance that quantifies the brightness of a surface by measuring the light emitted in a specific direction per unit area. It is often used in engineering and outdoor lighting applications.
