Calculates the power received by a camera pixel viewing a scene illuminated by a lambertian source at infinity. Calculates also the signal to noise ratio (SNR) obtained from different noise sources and the SNR obtained from all souces together.

1) Source, scene and camera parameters: enter the requested parameters caracterizing the source, the scene and the camera.

2) Pixel power and SNR: The power on a pixel, the SNR from various noise sources and the global SNR are calculated from the entered parameters.

3) List of “Handy Calculations” processed in the use case...: the list of "Handy Calculations" processed in the use case are displayed for direct use and better understanding.

Further details are provided in the contextual support (beige buttons above).
