A system and method for measuring radiation. In one embodiment, a radiometer includes an inlet port, a light sensor operatively coupled to the inlet port, and a direction sensor adapted to detect the orientation of the inlet port. In another aspect, a radiometer has a base, a housing pivotally mounted to the base, an aperture in the housing, a radiation sensor in communication with the aperture, and a direction sensor adapted to detect the orientation of the housing relative to the base. In yet another aspect, a radiometer has a housing including at least one aperture, and a radiation sensor adapted to detect the irradiance and direction of origin of radiation entering the aperture. A method is disclosed for detecting the irradiance of radiant energy from a source in at least two dimensions. The method involves the steps of providing a radiometer of the present invention and positioning the radiometer in the path of radiant energy emitted from the source.
