As a pure thought-experiment, it would be interesting to design a
scanner with the same illumination as described in the paper about the
colourmouse. The scanner would either do 8 passes (!) or cycle fast
enough between 8 series of LEDs.
Conceivably, but I would guess that the LED arrays are rather
special, and getting them in other colors would be very expensive
compared to the mass produced ones used in scanners.
As a colorimeter, a 3 LED scanner is likely to be far worse than
a white light based/filter/CCD type scanner, since it's narrow
band rather than the broad band responses that the CIE observer
requires.
