Candela per Square Inch
cd/in²
Definition
The Candela per Square Inch is an imperial unit of luminance, representing the luminous intensity per unit area using the square inch as the area unit. It is used for measuring very bright light sources and small-area displays.
History/Origin
This unit was developed for applications requiring precise measurement of small, bright light sources where square inches provide a more appropriate area reference. It is particularly useful in electronics and display technology where component sizes are measured in inches.
Current Use
Commonly used in electronics manufacturing, small display technology, and precision lighting applications. Essential for measuring LED arrays, small screens, and compact light sources where square inch measurements are standard.

Millilambert
mL
Definition
The Millilambert is a unit of luminance equal to one-thousandth of a lambert (0.001 lambert). It provides a more convenient way to express moderate luminance values using the lambert system, making calculations and specifications more manageable.
History/Origin
This unit was developed as a practical alternative to the full lambert unit when dealing with moderate luminance values. The milli- prefix makes it easier to work with typical luminance levels without using very large or very small numbers in the lambert system.
Current Use
Used in specialized photometric applications where the lambert system is preferred. Common in certain technical contexts and applications where traditional photometric units are still used or required for compatibility with existing measurement systems.
