As against the Lumen, which is mainly used to specify the total brightness of a source of light, Candela describes only the quantity of light …

Colour rendering index

The colour rendering index (CRI) describes the colour fidelity of a light source. For this purpose, the relative colour temperature of the light source to be measured is first determined. Then eight standard colours (see illustration) are first irradiated by an ideal black body of the same temperature and then by the light source to be measured. …

Colour temperature

The relative colour temperature (CCT) of a light source is based on the principle that any object will emit light if it is heated to a high enough temperature. The colour of this light will change in a predictable way depending on the temperature.  The reference point here is the so-called black body, an object that only exists in theory. …

ComfortLite®

For many manufacturers, it is sufficient if the light cone of their headlight meets the legal requirements. LED headlights with ComfortLite® have revised light patterns that not only illuminate the prescribed area, but also emit additional usable light. In the case of a low beam, more of the foreground, i.e. the area directly in front of the vehicle, is illuminated. On high beam, ComfortLite® provides illumination above the horizon as well as a powerful punch of light down the road.
