The Power of LEDs | Machine Vision Lighting
http://machine-vision-mag.com/lighting/the-power-of-leds
The Power of LEDs. Most machine vision lighting units, these days, make use of high quality LEDs. So, this is a quick look into what they are and how we measure the brightness of them. What is an LED? An LED is literally a light-emitting diode. It is made of a semi-conducting material which is doped (other semi-conducting material is added) and emits light of a certain wavelength (colour) when electricity is passed across it. All well and good, but why do they emit light? The wavelength, and therefore co...
