Abstract
A light output control system for implementing a method for sensing the tri-stimulus values for controlling a light output illuminated from an LED based luminary is disclosed. The system comprises one or more filter/photo diode sensors for sensing a first set of tri-stimulus values of the light output and providing signals indicative thereof. The signals are utilized in a transformation matrix whereby a second set of tri-stimulus values is obtained. The system controls the light output as a function of the second set of tri-stimulus values.
