Combining multiple illuminants in a single scene
Use the spatial-spectral illuminant feature to create a scene with two illuminants, one at the top and another at the bottom.
ISET scenes represent the scene spectral radiance and the scene illuminant. The spectral radiance is a hypercube of data, that is a spectral power distribution at each scene point.
The scene illuminant can be a single spectral power distribution, in which case the illuminant is assumed to be the same (constant) across the entire scene.
Alternatively, the scene illuminant can also be a hypercube of the same size as the scene spectral radiance. In that case, the illuminant, which we call spatial-spectral, is allowed to vary across the scene.

The mixture of two illuminants
s1 = sceneCreate('macbeth tungsten'); s1 = sceneIlluminantSS(s1); illT = sceneGet(s1,'illuminant energy'); s2 = sceneCreate; s2 = sceneIlluminantSS(s2); illD65 = sceneGet(s2,'illuminant energy');
Make a spatially mixed illuminant
ill = illT; % Start with tungsten everywhere % Select the top half from the D65 illuminant sz = sceneGet(s1,'size'); rows = round(1:(sz(1)/2)); cols = round(1:sz(2)); ill(rows,cols,:) = illD65(rows,cols,:); % Put the new illuminant in place s = sceneAdjustIlluminant(s1,ill); s = sceneSet(s,'name','Mixed illuminant'); ieAddObject(s1); % Tungsten ieAddObject(s2); % D65 ieAddObject(s); % Mixed % sceneWindow; imageMultiview('scene',1:3,true);
