HCG(HSG) to Linear REC.2020 Converter - Color Space Converter

HCG(HSG) color space introduction

Also known as the HCG(HSG) color space.There are 3 channels in total, hue,range from 0 to 360.chroma,range from 0 to 100.gray,range from 0 to 100.
The HCG color space incorporates elements from the HSL/HSV color models and provides a direct path to grayscale, addressing the issue of maintaining hue and saturation as colors fade to white or black.
Known as the HCG color space.
Colors are represented by hue (H), chroma (C), and gray (G), allowing for a transition to gray scale as the chroma decreases and the gray increases, enabling the color to fade without losing its hue.
The HCG color space is often used in applications such as data visualization where colors may need to be muted or made pastel while still retaining their color identity.
HCG combines the hue and saturation control of HSL/HSV with the concept of gray scale to provide a more flexible way of color fading.

Linear REC.2020 color space introduction

Also known as the Linear REC.2020 color space.There are 3 channels in total,Red,range from 0 to 1.Green,range from 0 to 1.Blue,range from 0 to 1.
Linear Rec. 2020, or Rec. 2020 Linear, is a variant of the Rec. 2020 color space, where the nonlinear transfer function (gamma curve) applied in standard Rec. 2020 is removed.
Linear Rec. 2020 or Rec. 2020 Linear.
In Linear Rec. 2020 color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels without gamma correction.
Linear Rec. 2020 is primarily used in image processing and color grading tasks that require linear calculations, such as image compositing and high dynamic range imaging.
Due to its provision of direct linear light values, Linear Rec. 2020 is particularly suited for advanced image editing tasks that require precise color control and extended dynamic range.
