Approximation method

Supports 1667–25000 K. It uses a piecewise CIE 1931 Planckian-locus chromaticity approximation, converts xyY (Y=1) to XYZ, transforms to sRGB, scales/clips out-of-gamut channels, compands, and rounds to 8-bit RGB. The swatch is an approximate display preview—not an exact lamp spectrum, camera white balance, or measurement of real light. Reverse RGB-to-Kelvin conversion is not provided.
