title: Sensation luminance: a new name to distinguish CIE luminance from luminance dependent on an individual's spectral sensitivity.
abstract: The term sensation luminance is proposed when light measures are made which depend on individual observer's spectral sensitivity. The unit of measure for sensation luminance is ives/m2. When sensation luminance is used to calculate retinal illuminance the term sensation trolands is proposed.
