Abstract

A system and method for a hyperspectral illuminator. The hyperspectral illuminator includes an LED array for generating light of a predefined spectra. The hyperspectral illuminator further includes multiple collimators. Each of the multiple collimators is associated with one an LED of the LED array and focus the light into beams. The hyperspectral illuminator further includes multiple dichroic filters. The dichroic filters filter the beams. The hyperspectral illuminator further includes one or more integrator lenses for mixing the filtered beams into a uniform pattern for projection on to a target.
