Active illumination based multispectral imaging using LED light sources has got much attention in recent years due to the availability of wide range of narrow band color LEDs spreading across the visible as well as infrared regions. We proposed a fast multispectral imaging using LED illumination and an RGB camera (RGB-LEDMSI) along with a novel LED selection method. In this paper, we present and analyze the results from real world experiments on the proposed RGB-LEDMSI. We built a prototype 9-band RGB-LEDMSI system using commercial iQ-LED panels and a Nikon D600 camera. The experimental results from the prototype system confirm the effectiveness of the proposed system.
