Crazy scientific instrument idea with probably limited practical use: inverse spectrometer.

Broadband light source (halogen lamp etc), collimating lens, slit, prism, then transmissive LCD to provide selective attenuation at each spectral bin and some kind of focusing optics to combine the resulting light back into a single beam.

Do a bit of calibration for system losses and the light source spectrim and you end up with a device where you can load in a spectrum of an arbitrary light source and get back light of precisely that color.

Want to simulate sunlight? A sodium vapor lamp? A very specific brand of low CRI LED? A particular phosphor on a fluorescent light? It'll do that and more in a very repeatable manner.
