Lighting Research Facilities at LBNL

gonio-photometer Gonio-photometer
We use this device to measure the intensity and direction of the light from a lamp or fixture.
integrating sphere Integrating sphere
This instrument allows us to get a fast and accurate measurement of the total light output of a lamp. We are not able to determine the direction of the light, only the intensity.
power analyzer Power analyzer
We use our power analyzer with the lamps in the gonio-photometer to measure input power, harmonic distortion, power factor, and many other signals that tell us how well a lamp is performing.
spectro-radiometer Spectro-radiometer
This device measures not only the intensity of a light source but also the intensity of the light at each wavelength.
