Résumé des résultats (Abstract) (Anglais)	Measurements of luminance distributions with high dynamic range (HDR) are required for various applications (e. g. new LED- or laser-based car headlights, obtrusive light, sky glow, road lighting, and glare evaluation). Both imaging luminance measurement devices (ILMDs) and red-green-blue (RGB) sensor cameras that are based on a colour filter array are often used for such assessments. HDR luminance images are achieved by severe digital post-processing of image sequences, which lacks standardisation and uncertainty statements. This project aims at developing procedures for providing SI-traceability to HDR imaging measurement systems, and at standardising the determination of the instrument performance, including associated uncertainties, and at selecting an HDR algorithm adequate for SI-traceable luminance measurements. In addition, the need for reliable evaluation, verification, and SI-traceability of HDR imaging measurement systems will be addressed, along with an awareness of the limitations, especially for critical areas of society such as traffic safety.
