Description:This patent relates generally to optics, spectroscopy, and illumination sources. More particularly, but not by way of limitation, This patent relates to customized spectral profiles and filters and illuminants having customized spectral profiles. Representative embodiments relate to customized spectral profiles that, when incorporated into a filter or illuminant (e.g., a filter or illuminant having the customized spectral profile), may be used for (a) protecting works of art or other objects that may be susceptible to perceptible changes in color, and/or (b) aesthetically rendering objects.
Abstract:Customized spectral profiles, and filters and illuminants having a customized spectral profile, optimized to reduce light in one or more wavelength regions for which one or more pigments are relatively more susceptible to perceptible changes in appearance.
