Target illumination LEDs - What color? How bright?

LEDs tend to be very directional. Adding a diffuser will widen the area of illumination, but will weaken the amount of returned light.

Fortunately you dont need much returned light and you can block out all but the exact wavelength you are looking for, meaning that you will need to do some teating but as long as the returned light is detectable, the amount of returned light does not need to be a lot.
