 For the calibration purposes we have acquired a Philips "Hue White and Color Ambiance A19 LED Starter Kit" that allowed us to test various illumination scenarios for a range of color temperatures. For a given white color temperature setting we have dialed the red and blue gains to make the scene "white" (leaving the green gain at its constant value of ''1024''). For the calibration purposes we have acquired a Philips "Hue White and Color Ambiance A19 LED Starter Kit" that allowed us to test various illumination scenarios for a range of color temperatures.

-What does all that mean in practice? Suppose you have set up your scene with "white" lamps that are marked as ''4100''°K. Based on the above information you'd know that to get the best "natural" colors out of that scene means setting your red channel gain to ''1217'' and blue gain to ''2529'' while leaving the green gain at its default ''1024'' value.+What does all that mean in practice?
