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).
Red arrows show that 5780 K black bodies have 501 nm peak wavelength and 63.3 MW/m 2 radiant exitance. Correlated color temperature (CCT, T cp) refers to the temperature of a Planckian radiator whose perceived color most closely resembles that of a given stimulus at the same brightness and under specified viewing conditions."

The lumen is defined to be unity for a radiant energy of 1/683 W at a frequency of 540 THz, which corresponds to a standard air wavelength of 555.016 nm rather than 555 nm, which is the peak of the luminosity curve. The value of y (λ) is 0.999 997 at 555.016 nm, so that a value of 683/ 0.999 997 = 683.002 is the multiplicative constant. [3]
Similarly, young subjects may perceive ultraviolet wavelengths down to about 310–313 nm, [26] [27] [28] but detection of light below 380 nm may be due to fluorescence of the ocular media, rather than direct absorption of UV light by the opsins. As UVA light is absorbed by the ocular media (lens and cornea), it may fluoresce and be released at ...
Normalized responsivity spectra of human cone cells, S, M, and L types (SMJ data based on Stiles and Burch [1] RGB color-matching, linear scale, weighted for equal energy) [2] LMS (long, medium, short), is a color space which represents the response of the three types of cones of the human eye , named for their responsivity (sensitivity) peaks ...
CIE 1931 xy chromaticity diagram showing the gamut of the wide-gamut RGB color space and location of the primaries. The D50 white point is shown in the center.. The wide-gamut RGB color space (or Adobe Wide Gamut RGB) is a color space developed by Adobe Systems, that offers a large gamut by using pure spectral primary colors. [1]

[2] [3] It has been established that the maximum spectral sensitivity of the human eye under daylight conditions is at a wavelength of 555 nm, while at night the peak shifts to 507 nm. [ 4 ] In photography , film and sensors are often described in terms of their spectral sensitivity, to supplement their characteristic curves that describe their ...
