Podium - lumen, candela or lux?
-
Hi,
i never asked it, but what values is using Podium ?
are these lumen, candela or lux? (btw, which are three different things, however just for information) -
Nobody around who has an answer to my question?
i think my question isn't trivial, if we want to get some nice interior illumination studies.
just today i ran my first warm-ups with a nice unbiased Kerkythea and IES light resources for interiors. Amazing, what this software is capable of!

Why not ask that on their forum

Hi Pilou,
thanks for your advice. Your answer is correct.
In the past, I was excited to become a member of various forums.
Mostly, render engines do a nice job, but are optimized for a presentational task (often exteriors) which are relatively easy to get, in comparison for realistic interior simulations.There is specialized software -lighting analysis softw.- like Spotify -if i remember right- for Vectorworks and LTB, but i dont't own, nor i want to buy such a software. Kerkythea seems to do a good job for me. I haven't explored all their features till now, but i found only watt or lumen values for self-emitting materials. Seems lighting values are largely fancy values for render engines. Or i'm wrong

In any case as you can easily incease / decrease them it's not a great importance to know the particar unities

And why not write directly to Podium

on the go to write a mailβ¦
I'm curious about the answer. I'll post their mail to leave a feedback for others who have the same question like me. Just to clarify things from ground up. Fortunately, Kerkythea uses IES too.
