Lumen Pro 2 — Press Kit
Lighting design software for Blender — v2.2.6, Blender 5.1+
Boilerplate
One-liner: Lumen Pro 2 brings real photometric lighting analysis into Blender — from IES/LDT import to finished A4 report.
Short paragraph (copy-paste): Lumen Pro 2 is a Blender add-on for lighting designers, architects, engineers and visualizers. Import IES, LDT and GLDF photometric data, build physically accurate Cycles scenes, bake illuminance to any mesh, analyse in realtime with probes and ISO contours, run CIE sky and EPW daylight studies, and export A4 reports and per-pixel CSV — all without leaving Blender. Validated against CIE 171:2006. By Gregor Quade (q3de), info@lumenpro.eu.

What makes it different
Blender-native, not a side tool
Analysis data is real Blender data — extendable with Geometry Nodes.

From import to report
Photometrics → bake → realtime probe/ISO → A4 + CSV. One workflow.

“Lighting designers shouldn’t have to leave Blender to trust their numbers. Lumen Pro keeps your photometrics, your scene and your report in one place — and your analysis data stays real Blender data you can build on.” — Gregor Quade, developer of Lumen Pro
