Flicker meter, MAVOPAD, Gossen Foto und Lichtmesstechnik

The flicker meter - reliably quantifying temporary light artifacts. Brightness fluctuation results from the fact that leds very quickly respond to voltage fluctuations. Flicker influences human health and mood, and our sense of well-being. It can trigger epileptic seizures, migraine headaches, fatigue, restricted visual acuity, distraction and impaired vision. In the case of rotating objects, the strobe effect can lead to erroneous evaluations and accidents. Previous time range parameters such as flicker percentage, flicker index and flicker frequency are no longer sufficient, which is why new calculation procedures and parameters have been developed.
