I've got some 8-bit images that were captured with a B/W frame grabber and would like to display them on a color monitor using some pseudocolor function. I need a mapping (or function) for the gray levels 0->255 to a combination of Red/Green/Blue values for the color look-up table. One option would be to (in HSV space) fix a hue and saturation, then move in value. The result would be something like blue->green->red but I'd really prefer having my 0's be black and my 255's be white (and still use a spectrum of colors to increase the grayscale resolution). Is there a standard way to do this? I'm thinking along the lines of changing a parameter(s) in another color space then converting to RGB. Thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.
