1.Understand photometers that measure lux and foot-candles. Know how to interpret illuminance units.

Understand lumens and luminance. Measure beam and field angle.

2.photo electric transducer converts a light beam into a usable electric signal. light strikes the photo
emissive cathode and releases electrons, which are attracted towards the anode, thereby producing an
electric current in the circuit.

3.Lambert's cosine law says that the radiant intensity or luminous intensity observed from an ideal
diffusely reflecting surface or ideal diffuse radiator is directly proportional to the cosine of the angle
between the direction of the incident light and the surface normal.

4.The inverse-square law, in physics, is any physical law stating that a specified physical quantity or
intensity is inversely proportional to the square of the distance from the source of that physical
quantity.

-photo emissive

-photo conductive
