Description

Nit (nt): Common Term for Display Brightness

The nit is a non-SI unit of luminance, equivalent to one candela per square meter (cd/m²). It is widely used in the electronics and display industries to describe the brightness of screens and monitors. Higher nit values indicate brighter displays, which are essential for visibility in various lighting conditions.

Understanding nits is important for consumers and professionals when selecting display devices, as it directly affects viewing comfort and image clarity. For instance, outdoor displays require higher nit levels to remain visible under sunlight, while indoor screens can operate effectively at lower brightness levels. Evaluating nit specifications ensures that displays meet the intended usage requirements.

Lumen (lm): Measuring Luminous Flux

The lumen is the SI unit of luminous flux, quantifying the total amount of visible light emitted by a source per unit of time. One lumen is defined as the luminous flux emitted within a unit solid angle (one steradian) by a point source with a uniform luminous intensity of one candela. This unit is crucial for evaluating the overall brightness of light sources, such as bulbs and LEDs.

In practical terms, lumens provide a direct measure of a light source's output, enabling consumers and professionals to assess and compare the brightness of different lighting products. Higher lumen values indicate greater light output, which is essential for applications requiring specific illumination levels, from residential lighting to commercial and industrial settings.
