HCG(HSG) to xvYCC Converter - Color Space Converter

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.

Also known as the xvYCC color space.There are 3 channels in total,Y,range from 0 to 255.Cb,range from 0 to 255.Cr,range from 0 to 255.

xvYCC was developed by Sony and standardized by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) in 2005. It is an expansion over the standard YCbCr color space, designed to support a wider range of colors for high-definition video.

The main name is xvYCC, also known as IEC 61966-2-4 or extended-gamut YCC.

Similar to YCbCr, xvYCC is typically expressed as three component values (Y, Cb, Cr). However, xvYCC uses a signaling method that enables it to represent a broader range of colors. This includes values for Cb and Cr that, unlike YCbCr, can exceed the nominal range of video levels, going below 16 or above 235 in 8-bit terms.

xvYCC is used primarily in high-definition video formats and devices such as Blu-ray players, digital cameras, and HDTVs that support HDMI 1.3 or higher. It allows for more vivid and accurate color representation on capable devices.

xvYCC can display a wider range of color values than sRGB by allowing values that fall outside the typical RGB gamut. It achieves this by using the same color encoding method as YCbCr but permits values in the signaling that exceed the range of the BT.601 or BT.709 color spaces.
