  • Publication number: 20250024160
    Abstract: A processor captures a first image of a platform using a first camera of a plurality of cameras and determines a color metric based on the first image, wherein the color metric indicates a color of the first image. The processor compares the color metric to the color metric. In response to determining that the color metric associated with the first image does not match with the color setpoint, the processor adjusts brightness of at least one of a first set of warm LEDs or a second set of cool LEDs to cause the color of the light incident on the platform to match the color setpoint.
