Uncertainty Budget for Calibration of Sensors for Measurement of Correlated Color Temperature

Abstract

Color temperature is one of the most important factors when designing artificial lighting. This parameter is especially important to properly solve the visual task, as well as for the health and comfort of the artificial lighting users. More and more manufacturers take this fact into consideration and numerus luminaires have appeared on the market with the possibility of changing the color temperature depending on the visual task and application of the lighting system. The management and control of adjustable CCT lighting with intelligent systems allows for greater flexibility, multifunctionality and economy. The publication describes a method for calibrating a low-cost sensor used for CCT control and measurement.
