Brightness
In telecommunication, brightness is an attribute of visual perception in which a source appears to emit a given amount of light."Brightness" was formerly used as a synonym for the photometric term luminance and (incorrectly) for the radiometric term radiance[?]. "Brightness" should now be used only for nonquantitative references to physiological sensations and perceptions of light.
