The intensity distribution of light over the visible spectrum generated by the Sun under various conditions or by other light sources intended to simulate natural daylight
a type of light used in a commercial light box to simulate natural daylight The correct technical definition is as follows: Daylight is a light source providing a color temperature of 6500+/-200 K at an illumination of 90 to 120 ft/candles This source is typically provided by four filtered 750 W Tungsten Halogen lamps The daylight filters must be certified by the manufacturer to ensure consistency of the transmitted color temperature between each filter/location The resulting spectral power distribution of the transmitted light must be maintained to confirm to that of the filter manufacturer's standard (K = Kelvin)
Direct sunlight and light reflected from the sky combine to produce a natural ambient light with a color temperature of around 5500K
emphasis If you say that a crime is committed in broad daylight, you are expressing your surprise that it is done during the day when people can see it, rather than at night. A girl was attacked on a train in broad daylight
