# :rainbow: Color Blind LUTs

Lookup tables (LUTs) for [Fiji](https://fiji.sc/)/[ImageJ](https://imagej.github.io/) unambiguous to color blind humans.

## Background

**Masataka Okabe** and **Kei Ito** first proposed this color set in their meticulous work describing how to make color blind friendly figures [1].
Using the LUT Panel plugin developed by **Patrick Pirrotte** and **Jerome Mutterer** [2], I created the corresponding LUT files for Okabe & Ito’s color set to use on confocal stacks in ImageJ.
