3.8. LUT (Look-Up Table) Operations
The LUT (Look-Up Table) refers to a reference table that defines the relationship between the pixel
brightness gradation of the original image data taken and the brightness gradation displayed on a
computer screen or video monitor.
The system contains a hardware LUT function, and you can display the image data taken with
improved contrast (light and dark sharpness) or make an object in the image stand out by
emphasizing a specified gray level range.
The LUT in the system and the relationship between it and video output and the PC software is
explained below.

When an image is saved with its brightness converted with the LUT, the image saved is the image
that has had its brightness converted.
3.8.1. Using Preset LUT Patterns
Six preset LUT patterns have been prepared in advance on the system. Each of these patterns is
explained in sequence in this section.
