| Title: |
Luminary Control System Adapted For Reproducing The Color Of a Known Light Source |
| Abstract: |
A light source and method for programming the light source to provide a
color that approximates that of a target light source are disclosed. The
light source generates light at first and second wavelengths with
intensities that are determined by first and second control signals that
are set by a feedback controller that matches the outputs of a monitoring
circuit to target signals. The target signals are generated from target
values that are entered into the feedback controller by exposing the
light source to the target light source and observing the outputs from a
set of photodetectors incorporated in the light source. In one
embodiment, the photodetectors in the monitoring circuit are used for
this programming function.
