Lighting Analysis in Revit

The video tutorial covers the basics of lighting, including lighting theory and measurement units like candela, lumens, and lux. It discusses different types of artificial lighting such as incandescent, halogen, CFL, and LED. The tutorial also explains the purpose of lighting analysis and how Revit can be used for solar analysis and illuminance rendering. Revit's limitations and the use of plugins for more accurate data and scheduling are also highlighted.

What is the unit of measurement for the source of light?
