TM-30 was developed, through a consensus process, to provide a comprehensive set of objective information—going beyond simple average values—that can be used collectively to make informed decisions about subjective perceptions, such as preference or naturalness, given a context. New research has shown the value of this robust system in capturing human judgements of lighting quality. Nonetheless, TM-30 is a tool, not an answer. Its limitations must be understand, and it must be combined with other color information, such as chromaticity, luminance, and distribution of light, when choosing a source.

Abstract:

4

Summarize the process that led to the recommendation by the IES Color Metrics Task Group

Describe the components of the color rendition evaluation system and how they can be interpreted to aid design and specification

Comprehend the conceptual framework for the underlying calculations

Recognize the limitations of the this system, and more generally recognize the limitations of all measures for color rendition

Understand how the objective information in TM-30 can be used to aid in subjective design decisions (i.e., matching the right source to an application).

ol1. A metric value doesn’t tell you how the product will perform in any

given environment.

2. The “accuracy”/applicability of the metric depends on if the sample set is similar to the actual space.

3. An average color rendering metric shouldn’t be used to predict how a source will render reds, or skin tones, or any specific set of objects.

4. TM-30 offers substantially more information, which is essential for evaluating color rendering characteristics.

5. The best source is depends on the context (objects, type of space/application, illuminance, occupants, etc.)
