Radiant Vision Systems engineers imaging colorimeters and photometers, application software, and goniometric systems to critically evaluate light, color, and surface quality. Calibrated to simulate human visual perception, Radiant cameras perform scientific measurement of displays and illuminated components to ensure quality that accurately reflects human experience.

The Language of Light
Human Photopic Response
The human eye is not equally sensitive to wavelengths of light across the visible electromagnetic spectrum. Sensitivity of the human photopic response is given by the CIE 1931 luminosity function for a standard photopic observer (aligns with the 𝒚𝒚 color matching curve), peaking at around 555 nanometers. Thus, green wavelengths are typically brightest to the eye.
Spectral Power Distribution Every light source is defined by its unique spectral power distribution (SPD), which is the radiant power (Watts) emitted by the light source at each wavelength in the visible electromagnetic spectrum.
