TM-30, developed in 2015 by the Illumination Engineering Society (IES), is an advanced method for measuring the color rendering capabilities of light sources. It addresses the limitations of the older Color Rendering Index (CRI) by providing a more comprehensive and accurate evaluation of how well a light source renders colors.
TM-30 is particularly beneficial in environments where precise color rendering is essential. It allows designers and lighting professionals to make more informed decisions, ensuring that the chosen lighting enhances the desired colors and ambiance of the space.
