What is photometry?

Definition and Importance of Photometry in LED Lighting

What is photometry? This science measures light rays perceptible to the human eye, evaluating the luminous flux received by a surface. Its main units of measurement are lux and foot-candles. Indispensable for all lighting projects, large or small, photometry ensures optimal, high-quality LED lighting. It checks that the lighting meets the required criteria of efficiency, distribution and luminous intensity.
When planning LED lighting projects, simulations are a central element, especially when large-scale trials are impractical. They ensure that the layout of light points complies with standards and aesthetic criteria, providing uniform, optimal light. These simulations provide a precise visualization of light distribution, enabling in-depth photometric studies prior to installation. In this way, they play a vital role in improving LED lighting for a variety of environments.

What you get

A complete lighting blueprint

Each photometric study we deliver includes the four critical elements that guarantee an optimal, compliant, and energy-efficient LED installation.

3D simulation

A full 3D model of your space with realistic light rendering, so you can see exactly how your lighting will look before installation.

Lux level calculations

Precise lux and foot-candle measurements at every point in your space, meeting workplace, industrial, and safety standards.

Uniformity analysis

A visual heatmap that identifies dark spots and hot spots, ensuring an even, comfortable, and professional light distribution across the entire area.

Energy optimization

The right product at the right wattage, placed optimally. Maximize efficiency, minimize costs, and qualify for Hydro-Québec subsidies.

The Importance of LED Lighting Simulations

The photometry gives the exact number of lux on the ground according to the type/model of product you are going to use to light. Also, the number of projectors required will vary according to the wattage of the products installed and the costs will be assessed accordingly.
