The study of colour vision with fluorescence microscopy requires precise control over the spectra of visual stimuli.
Here we describe an effective, low-cost, opensource LED stimulator, designed to be used in combination with a 2-photon microscope. The design is built around an open-source development board and off-the-shelf components. It has been conceived to be assembled and used without the need for advanced electronics skills.
