ieLuminanceFromPhotons

PURPOSE

Calculate luminance (cd/m2) and related quantities (lux,lumens,cd) from spectral

SYNOPSIS

function lum = ieLuminanceFromPhotons(photons,wave)

DESCRIPTION

Calculate luminance (cd/m2) and related quantities (lux,lumens,cd) from spectral
 photons

  lum = ieLuminanceFromPhotons(photons,wave)

 Purpose:
   Converts photons into energy and then calls ieLuminanceFromEnergy.
