Abstract
A method of determining a modified spectral content of a light emitting diode (LED) light engine includes separating spectral data from the LED light engine into at least two spectral component bands, calculating respective efficacies for each of the at least two spectral components, simulating a first LED spectral component for a predetermined peak position and intensity, modifying spectral data from an existing LED to match a predetermined peak wavelength, applying factorial design-of-experiment techniques to the simulated first LED spectral component and the modified spectral data to obtain a selection of spectra, and selecting a spectrum from the results of the applying step, wherein the selected spectrum includes characteristics of the modified spectral content. The method includes the step of producing a LED light engine/electronic driver combination having the selected spectrum. A non-transitory medium having computer executable instructions is disclosed.
