CIE S 026:2018 Tutorial

July 6, 2021 to July 13, 2021
Online

This CIE Tutorial has been developed to support the understanding, adoption and proper application of CIE S 026/E:2018 CIE System for Metrology of Optical Radiation for ipRGC-Influenced Responses to Light.

After completion of the tutorial participants will be able to:

  • explain and apply the standardized light metrology of CIE S 026 that is based on five (a-opic) retinal photoreceptor types that influence human health and wellbeing via non-visual photoreception and circadian rhythms; and
  • characterize, compare and rudimentarily design lighting environments and spectra that use non-visual photoreception to reinforce human health, sleep, well being and performance in specific user groups.

The focus of the tutorial is the explanation and application of the a-opic metrology of CIE S 026:2018 in lighting applications, specifications, metrology and research. Invited experts will present lectures that explain the newly defined CIE metrics and quantities and the use of the  CIE Toolbox. In addition, various familiar examples like indoor lighting for the workplace and domestic settings, self-luminous displays and natural daylight will be discussed. The role and performance of wearable spectral light loggers will also be covered.

Chinese translation of CIE S 026:2018, presentation subtitles in Chinese and Q&A session Chinese audio channel made possible by CIE NC China.
