Patent number: 7173384
Abstract: A description is given of an illumination device which emits mixed-color light containing light of at least two different color channels (R, R1, G, G1, B, B1). The illumination device contains at least one primary light source (1) of a first color, the light of which forms a first color channel (R, R1, G, G1, B, B1), and at least one primary light source (1) of a second color, the light of which forms a second color channel (R, R1, G, G1, B, B1), at least one sensor device (3), which is positioned such that it can receive mixed-color light and is suitable for detecting brightness of light of a wavelength range comprising the color channels (R, R1, G, G1, B, B1) and which determines the brightnesses of the different color channels (R, R1, G, G1, B, B1) separately and repeatedly during operation.
