Abstract
At present, suitable methods to evaluate the visual effectiveness of lighting products in the mesopic region are not available. The majority of spectral luminous efficiency functions obtained to date in the mesopic range have been acquired by heterochromatic brightness matching. However, the most recent studies in the mesopic field have adopted a task performance-based approach. This paper summarizes the major mesopic models proposed so far, presenting in detail the experimental conditions of these studies. The authors represent a research consortium which has adopted the task performance-based approach for night-time driving in which mesopic visual performance has been divided into three subtasks. Data for each sub-task will be generated by using a set of common parameter values and 120 observers. The approach and methods used by the consortium are presented.
