Btw, I'm actually wondering whether well-known spectral imaging approaches might also work for turning a scanner into a more colorimetric device:
Any comments or objections?
Some comments spring to mind: This probably won't work for narrow band scanner sensitivities. How do you calibrate your spectral scanner ? What maths is needed to extract spectral info from RGB+filter output ? Is it all worth it ? For that much effort, you may be better of buying a spectrometer, if your aim is to read test patches, rather than do a spectral scan of artwork etc. There is a bunch of literature about this sort of thing, mostly from the art preservation/reproduction folks, who are most active in pursuing spectral reproduction.
