[0029] In addition, the data processing and correction of the entire light radiation is a very complicated process. First, all visual matching functions of standard setting units such as CIE need to be stored in the system, and then the measured light radiation is matched with functions, and corrected with the data of the deployed standard light source, and then the data is calculated through various photometric calculation formulas. It is best to display various parameters and data or communicate them remotely to the computer. The content of this part involving data processing and algorithms is not the key point of the structure claimed by the utility model, so it will not be described in detail here.

[0030] Based on the above ideal embodiments of the utility model, the relevant staff can make various changes and modifications without departing from the scope of the utility model through the above description.
