Cyclic MYBM

Summary

Cyclic MYBM is a cyclic colormap from colorcet. Lightness spans 0.43–0.89, hue sweeps 358° from red to rose, and order breaks under protan, deutan, and tritan simulation.

Perceptual profile (OKLCh)

• Lightness: 0.663 → 0.659 (range 0.463, min 0.425, max 0.888); non-monotonic; midpoint 0.651
• Chroma: min 0.083, max 0.175, mean 0.130
• Hue: 29.1° → 26.9° (span 357.8°), path monotonic-cw; quadrants: red, orange, yellow, chartreuse, green, mint, cyan, azure, blue, violet, magenta, rose
• Endpoint temperature: warm → warm
• Perceptual ΔE: total 193.5, mean/step 0.759, max step 1.094, smoothness 0.793, speed 0.759

Colorblind safety (ΔE under simulated CVD)

• Protanopia: ΔE total 154.7; preserves order: no
• Deuteranopia: ΔE total 152.4; preserves order: no
• Tritanopia: ΔE total 172.6; preserves order: no
