Examples of photometer
photometer
Red is 24-micron light detected by Spitzer's multiband imaging photometer.

- Measuring instrument for measuring the luminous intensity of a source by comparing it (visually or photoelectrically) with a standard source
- Light meter: photographic equipment that measures the intensity of light
- In its widest sense, a photometer is an instrument for measuring light intensity or optical properties of solutions or surfaces. Photometers are used to measure: *Illuminance *Irradiance *Light absorption *Scattering of light *Reflection of lightn*Fluorescencen*Phosphorescencen*Luminescence
- A device that measures the total amount of light received in all or part of the image.
- An instrument for measuring photometric quantities such as luminance, luminous intensity, luminous flux, and illuminance.
- Any of a number of atmospheric phenomena which appear as luminous patterns in the sky. They do not directly cause adverse weather. They include halos, coronas. rainbows, and fogbows.
- A light-sensitive detector placed at the focus of a telescope; it is used to make accurate measurements of small photon fluxes.
- Instrument used for measuring the concentration of DOP smoke particles up and downstream of a HEPA filter.
- A device for measuring visible radiation. Typically divided into two categories: illuminance meters and luminance meters.
