Businesses are more frequently discovering video to be one of the most effective, affordable methods of employee training. Video allows for a quick demonstration of techniques and skills and allows employees to emulate these skill and techniques faster and more accurately than standard training methods. Video also makes it easier to train a large group in a shorter period of time. By creating in-house videos, companies gain the full control of the creation, distribution, and marketing of their training material. Of course, this is an undertaking that calls for greater research and, perhaps, outside expertise. The point of reference here, however, pertains to the quality of the video which can be greatly affected if certain standards are not in place. A luminance meter, for one, enhances the quality of the video by accurately measuring the light intensity of the video setting.


Purpose of a Luminance Meter and How it Affects Video Quality


A luminance meter is an instrument designed to measure light quality. It was once used mainly in photo studios but, in recent times, has been ...
... found to benefit a variety of industries. The luminance meter possesses a special sensitivity for reception and, for this reason, is very useful in the measurement of emergency lighting. This sensitivity for reception makes a luminance meter very beneficial for video recording as well as it can accurately judge the brightness of a particular scene. The luminance meter can be used indoors or out, but an adjustment of the device is necessary to ensure an accurate measurement. Once the luminance meter is correctly set, it can relay the appropriate settings on the video camera for producing the best quality video.


Combine a Luminance Meter with a Minolta Color Analyzer for Greater Video Enhancement


While a light meter is an instrument for measuring light itself, a color analyzer is a tool that measures the distribution of the luminance. A Minolta color analyzer measures high-resolution luminance, meeting the demands of the industry for a 2D high-resolution light distribution measurement device. This type of analyzer can accurately measure two- dimensional color distribution and uniformity of a variety of luminance meters. It is also capable of measuring the brightness and color of LCD light displays with high accuracy. The Minolta color analyzer was designed using a white reflectance plate standard. The CIE illuminant C light source makes it a desirable piece of equipment for the recording and storing of static and mobile data. Training recordings combining a luminance meter and Minolta color analyzer produce greater quality videos.
