Abstract
The color quality of light sources for lighting includes the effects of white light chromaticity, as well as color rendition characteristics, including color fidelity and the aspects related to color preference and perception. In this paper, the current standards and the latest research on white light chromaticity and color saturation preferences are overviewed. The characteristics of TM-30 Fidelity Index and Gamut Index from the Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) are examined in comparison to the Color Rendering Index (CRI). Current activities in International Commission on Illumination (CIE) related to these and future perspective of color quality metrics are discussed.
