A Practical Model for Mesopic Photometry
نویسندگان
چکیده
This article reports the results of a multinational research project investigating visual performance in halflight (mesopic) conditions. From the experimental investigations using reaction time, detection threshold and recognition contrast threshold techniques, the results were used to develop a system for practical mesopic photometry, which provides an acceptably good fit to the experimental data and is also suitable for practical implementation by the lighting industry. A major feature of the model is that it can be implemented in terms of photopic and scotopic luminance measurements, measurements that can easily be made in practice.

Development of Visual Performance Based Mesopic Photometry
This work started by investigating the applicability of the photopic V( ) function to predict visual task performance at mesopic light levels. Visual acuity and pedestrian visibility experiments were carried out in varied lighting and viewing conditions. The results indicated the inadequacy of photopic photometry to characterise the response of peripheral vision at low mesopic light levels. The...
متن کاملModeling spectral sensitivity at low light levels based on mesopic visual performance
The spectral sensitivity of the eye at low light levels, ie, mesopic conditions, is determined by the rod and cone photoreceptors of the retina operating together in varying degree as adaptation luminance shifts between the scotopic and photopic. Thus mesopic spectral sensitivity is different from photopic, where only cones contribute to vision. There are definite needs for a practical system o...
متن کاملMesopic Visual Performance of Cockpit’s Interior based on Artificial Neural Network
The ambient light of cockpit is usually under mesopic vision, and it’s mainly related to the cockpit’s interior. In this paper, a SB model is come up to simplify the relationship between the mesopic luminous efficiency and the different photometric and colorimetric variables in the cockpit. SelfOrganizing Map (SOM) network is demonstrated classifying and selecting samples. A Back-Propagation (B...
متن کاملMesopic luminance assessed with minimum motion photometry.
We measured the relative contribution of rods and cones to luminance across a range of photopic, mesopic, and scotopic adaptation levels and at various retinal eccentricities. We isolated the luminance channel by setting motion-based luminance nulls (minimum motion photometry) using annular stimuli. Luminance nulls between differently colored stimuli require equality in a weighted sum of rod an...
متن کاملA proposed uni ® ed system of photometry
A uni® ed system of photometry is proposed that is based on human vision and allows the speci® cation of visual stimuli at all light levels. To be useful, however, photometry can never be entirely synonymous with vision. Additivity is an essential characteristic of photometry, yet many visual responses, such as brightness matching, incorporate visual channels that are inherently non-additive in...
