Cover Story: The relationship between light spectra and color discrimination capabilities can be examined through carefully designed psychophysical experiments. This work specifically examines LED lighting, proposing a novel experimental methodology based on color pair comparisons. To overcome the limits of existing color systems and enable the creation of tailored color sample sets, a calibration process is presented to produce desired color patches using a commercial inkjet printer. While LEDs offer the advantage of generating a wide range of light spectra, their performance is affected by heat-induced instabilities. To address such an issue, an active feedback algorithm is proposed to dynamically regulate the light output in real time, ensuring stability and minimizing potential biases in experimental results.
