## Description

Estimate lux from iPhone camera exposure data. EV, stats, calibration, and CSV export.

LumenLab is 100% software, using your iPhone's built-in camera — no external hardware required. LumenLab turns your iPhone's rear camera into a real-time light meter. By reading the camera's exposure metrics (ISO, shutter, aperture), it computes the illuminance of your environment in lux — perfect for photographers, plant growers, interior designers, and anyone who cares about lighting.

KEY FEATURES
• Real-time lux reading using camera exposure parameters
• Color-coded zones: dark · dim · normal · bright · glaring
• Lighting recommendations for each level
• One-tap session reset
• Core measurement works offline — no tracking, no ads, no account

USE CASES
• Photographers checking ambient light levels
• Cinematographers metering scene illumination
• Plant growers ensuring grow-light intensity
• Interior designers checking room brightness
• Office ergonomics (recommended 300–500 lux)
• Reading nook brightness check

PRO FEATURES (optional subscription)
• Advanced metrics row: EV, ISO, Shutter, Aperture (f/)
• Session statistics: minimum, average, maximum lux
• Calibration multiplier to align with a professional reference meter
• CSV export of full session log (timestamp, lux, EV, calibration factor)
• Zero ads forever

HOW IT WORKS
LumenLab opens the camera (no recording, no preview saved), reads the device's auto-exposure metrics every frame, and applies the photographic equation:

  EV = log₂(N²/t) − log₂(S/100)
  lux ≈ 2.5 × 2^EV × calibration

This is a practical camera-exposure estimate. For critical comparisons, calibrate against a known light source or reference meter.

LIMITATIONS
The iPhone camera is not a calibrated photometer. Readings are estimates and can vary by device, lens, scene reflectance, and auto-exposure behavior. Not suitable for regulatory, lab, or safety measurements.

PRIVACY
The camera is opened only to read auto-exposure metadata. No images, video, or audio are recorded, saved, or transmitted. No analytics, no ads, no account. StoreKit is used only for the optional Pro subscription.
