  2. Luminous efficiency function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_efficiency_function

    The CIE 1924 photopic V(λ) luminosity function, [cie 3] which is included in the CIE 1931 color-matching functions as the y (λ) function, has long been acknowledged to underestimate the contribution of the blue end of the spectrum to perceived luminance. There have been numerous attempts to improve the standard function, to make it more ...

  3. CIE 1931 color space - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIE_1931_color_space

    A comparison between a typical normalized M cone's spectral sensitivity and the CIE 1931 luminosity function for a standard observer in photopic vision. In the CIE 1931 model, Y is the luminance, Z is quasi-equal to blue (of CIE RGB), and X is a mix of the three CIE RGB curves chosen to be nonnegative (see § Definition of the CIE XYZ color space).

  4. Photopic vision - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photopic_vision

    The 1931 CIE photopic luminosity function.The horizontal axis is wavelength in nm. Photopic vision is the vision of the eye under well-lit conditions (luminance levels from 10 to 10 8 cd/m 2).

  5. Luminous efficiency function - en.wikipedia.org

    en.wikipedia.org/.../mobile-html/Luminosity_function

    There are two luminous efficiency functions in common use. For everyday light levels, the photopic luminosity function best approximates the response of the human eye. For low light levels, the response of the human eye changes, and the scotopic curve applies. The photopic curve is the CIE standard curve used in the CIE 1931 color space.

  6. Photometry (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photometry_(optics)

    In modern photometry, the radiant power at each wavelength is weighted by a luminosity function that models human brightness sensitivity. Typically, this weighting function is the photopic sensitivity function, although the scotopic function or other functions may also be applied in the same way. The weightings are standardized by the CIE and ...

    English: Comparison between CIE 1931 photopic luminosity function and a typical normalized M cone response. Useful for explaining the Y tristimulus value in the CIE 1931 color space article. Date

  8. Luminous efficacy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_efficacy

    The luminous efficacy of the source is a measure of the efficiency of the device with the output adjusted to account for the spectral response curve (the luminosity function). When expressed in dimensionless form (for example, as a fraction of the maximum possible luminous efficacy), this value may be called luminous efficiency of a source ...

    The CIE 1931 colour space chromaticity diagram with wavelengths in nanometers.The colors depicted depend on the color space of the device on which the image is viewed.. The International Commission on Illumination (usually abbreviated CIE for its French name Commission internationale de l'éclairage) is the international authority on light, illumination, colour, and colour spaces.
