Purpose

Having LUTs to handle display of images with more than 3 channels. Visit Color Image Processing page to know more about LUTs.

Details

Classical color space are RGB and CMY. Expressed as RGB value, CMY are equal combination of 2 components of RGB, ie Cyan is obtained by combining Green and Blue in equal proportion.
