Abstract:
According to one embodiment, an illumination system includes a plurality of white light sources that satisfies −0.2≤[(P(λ)×V(λ))/(P(λ max 1)×V(λ max 1))−(B(λ)×V(λ))/(B(λ max 2)×V(λ max 2))]≤+0.2 where P(λ) is an emission spectrum of a white light source having a specific color temperature, B(λ) is an emission spectrum of black body radiation having a corresponding color temperature, V(λ) is a spectrum of spectral luminous efficiency, λ max 1 is a wavelength at which P(λ)×V(λ) becomes maximum, and λ max 2 is a wavelength at which B(λ)×V(λ) becomes maximum. The respective white light sources have different color temperatures, and light from the respective white light sources is irradiated from different directions to a target.
