Abstract

The response of the human eye to flicker depends on the type of lamp used. The standard flickermeter is based on the measurement of voltage and assumes the light source to be a 60 W incandescent lamp. When a different lamp is the source of light flicker, the standard flickermeter gives erroneous results. This paper presents a dynamic model of the eye-brain response to flicker. The model is based on the analysis of the light emitted by the lamp. A suitable measurement system has been developed and three different kinds of lamps have been considered. Experimental results show how the emitted light spectra and the human eye response to different colors determine the level of annoyance
