calculate the intensity

$

So I understand that to calculate the intensity a distance d away from a light-bulb you would treat the light-bulb as a point source and do a gaussian-sphere-type-of-thing to figure out the intensity at the desired location.

My problem involves a solid object made up of "point" light sources and I'm wondering whether I need integration to be able to solve the problem.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
