Lumens

What is Lumens?

Lumens are a measurement of the brightness of a light source, such as a light bulb, flashlight, or projector.

Specifically, lumens measure the amount of visible light that is emitted by a source in all directions. In the context of projectors, lumens are used to measure the brightness of the projected image. The higher the lumens of a projector, the brighter the image it can produce. For example, a projector with 3000 lumens will produce a brighter image than one with 2000 lumens. When choosing a projector, it is important to consider the lumens in relation to the intended use of the projector. For example, a projector with a high lumen count may be more appropriate for use in a bright, well-lit room, while a lower lumen count may be sufficient for a dimly lit home theater. It is worth noting that lumens are not the only factor that affects the image quality of a projector. Other factors, such as the resolution, contrast ratio, and color accuracy, also play a significant role in determining the overall picture quality.
