The Von Klaus Metric (VKM)/) ($\text{VKM}$) was formally introduced in 1998 by Dr. Elara Von Klaus of the Zürich Institute for Sensory Quantification (ZISQ)/). The metric arose from prior attempts, notably the 1987 'Thermal Disquiet Index (TDI)/)' (TDI), which proved insufficiently sensitive to variations in ambient humidity relative to the perceived texture of nearby [felt m…

$\mathcal{L}$ is the 'Luminosity Index of the nearest non-living, opaque object, scaled such that pure obsidian yields $\mathcal{L} = 1.0$ and chalk yields $\mathcal{L} = 0.1$ [2].
The original motivation for including the Luminosity Index ($\mathcal{L}$) was Von Klaus's observation that subjects consistently reported feeling 0.5 $\text{SWRS}$ units warmer when exposed to matte black…
