Technical Committee Meetings

TC2-40

• Standard for Characterizing the Performance of Illuminance Meters and Luminance Meters

• New standard to give clear and unambiguous definitions for individual quality indices

• Discussion surrounding characterisation of:– V () mis-match index f1’.

• A new definition is likely to include uncertainty.

– Directional response index f2.• Discussion regarding to measure out to 80° or 85°• The new definition will likely average the cosine

response over four half-planes

TC2-49

• Photometry of Flashing Lights• New technical report for photometric

measurements of flashing light, including measurement of light sources, and calibration of photometers for flashing light.

• New definition for derivation of “effective intensity” to replace the old B-R-D, Allard and Schmidt-Clausen.

TC2-51

• Calibration, Characterization and Use of Array Spectroradiometers

• Mainly for spectroradiometers that use CCD-arrays for real-time spectral measurement

• Looking at properties of these devices, how to characterise and calibrate, and also sources of uncertainty

• Subsequent meeting with TC chair in Melbourne

TC2-59

• Characterisation of Imaging Luminance Measurement Devices (ILMDS)

• Mainly for the devices that use CCD cameras to perform luminance measurements

• Looking at properties how to characterise and calibrate, etc.– Scattered light, Linearity, Spectral Response,

Uniformity, etc.– Binning, Blooming, Smear

TC2-47

• Characterisation and Calibration Methods of UV Radiometers

• Currently no uniform method of calibration that produces universally consistent results, ie: lamp and detector-dependant.

• New guide will recommend methods for characterisation of UVA, UVB and UVC radiometers with quality indices similar to luxmeters.
