1. An imaging device analysis system comprising:

  • a light source configured to emit initial light comprising a plurality of wavelengths of light;

    a filter assembly optically coupled with the light source and configured to receive the initial light, wherein the filter assembly comprises a planar mask opaque with respect to the initial light and defining spatially separated apertures for receiving respective a plurality of optical filters that are individually configured to filter some of the wavelengths of light from the initial light and to pass a respective discrete light beam comprising at least one of the wavelengths of light, wherein respective ones of the optical filters have different respective passbands such that the wavelengths of light of the light beams passed by the respective optical filters are different, and the optical filters are disposed in different respective ones of the apertures of the mask; and

    an emission interface optically coupled with the filter assembly and configured to emit the light beams to an imaging device configured to capture images responsive to received light.
