Toshiba Develops Natural LED Spotlight for Museums

Toshiba Lighting and Technology (TLT) has developed a small LED spotlight with built-in power supply for museum use.

Combining LED in red, green, blue and purple, the light spectrum is more similar to continuous spectrum of sunlight. It is said to make complex reflection of gold and light skin color possible to be reproduced in exhibition more accurately.
