noiseSphereCRGB()

CRGB fl::noiseSphereCRGB	(	float	angle,
		float	phi,
		u32	time,
		float	radius = 1.0f )

Generate CRGB noise for a sphere pattern.

Samples three z-slices of 3D Perlin noise to create independent red, green, and blue components (direct RGB, not HSV conversion).

Parameters

angle	Azimuth angle around the sphere (radians, 0 to 2π)
phi	Polar angle from the north pole (radians, 0 to π)
time	Animation time parameter
radius	Noise zoom level (level of detail). Larger values = coarser pattern, smaller = more detail (default 1.0)

Returns

CRGB color with 8-bit components
