Claim 9:
10. A method for adaptive energy storage at an illumination system of an imaging unit, the illumination system adapted to receive an illumination unit that includes one or more light emitting diodes (LEDs) and a memory storing data indicative of the LEDs; an LED driver configured to supply power to the illumination unit; a temperature sensor configured to sense a temperature; and a voltage controller, the method comprising:
obtaining, by one or more processors, the data stored at the memory of the illumination unit;
obtaining, by the one or more processors, a temperature value from the temperature sensor;
analyzing, by the one or more processors, the obtained data and the temperature value to determine a minimum voltage to operate the LEDs in accordance with an illumination cycle; and
control, by the one or more processors, the voltage controller to convert an input voltage to the voltage controller to the minimum voltage, wherein the voltage controller is configured to apply the minimum voltage to the LED driver.
