| Abstract: | For convenience and reproducibility, daylight is artificially simulated for viewing and measuring colors. Daylight has been standardized in a way that is impractical. the evaluation of fluorescent materials requires simulation of the ultraviolet component of daylight or daylight through a window. Sources for viewing are assessed by spectroradiometry and standard computations. Sources for spectrophotometry may be tested the same way or by measuring radiance factors of fluorescent standards. Better manufacturing methods have improved glass filters. A new filter design method takes account of the spatiospectral nature of the source and affords many degrees of freedom. |
