3.6 What is the CIE V(λ) curve?
The photometric system defines lightintermsof how it is perceived by the
human eye.The eye‘ssensitivity dependsonthe wavelengthor colorofthe
light. The spectral response of the human eye also changes with light intensity.
Theeyehastwodistinctivespectralresponses,whicharedefinedaccordingto
the brightness of the light entering the eye:
- Photopiclightconditionsresponse(lightadaptedeye):
Defined for light intensity greater than 0.1 lux. In these conditions, the eye
hasapeaksensitivityinthegreenpartofthevisiblespectrum,at555nm
anditisnormalized to1atthatwavelength,whilethe eye‘sresponseto
infraredorultravioletiszero.
- Scotopic light conditions response (dark adapted eye):
Occurs under low light conditions (scotopic) defined for light intensity
between 0.0001 and 0.01 lux. In these conditions, the eye has a peak
sensitivityatabout500nm.

The response is named the CIE or V(λ)curveandisdefinedinthedocument
CIE 10527. Sensors in illuminance meters must use special colour filters to
adapt to the response.
