We’re establishing the “pixel” system to give Steve emotions and define the states of the eyes. We’re looking to the LED clusters. Here is more info and some links to sources.

One candela is 1000 milicandelas (1 cd = 1000 mcd)
MCD is the preferred measurement of LEDs
Day to day examples…

  • good street light 2 Cd
  • corridors 3-6 Cd
  • living rooms 3-12 Cd
  • office 12-18 Cd
  • drawing office 18-30 Cd
  • shop windows 60-300 Cd
