HCG(HSG) to XYB 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.

XYB color space introduction

Also known as the XYB color space.There are 3 channels in total,X,range from -0.0154 to 0.0281.Y,range from 0 to 0.8453.B,range from -0.2778 to 0.388.
The XYB color space was developed by Google as part of their JPEG XL image format. It's designed to be more efficient for compression and more aligned with human vision than traditional color spaces like RGB.
XYB color space.
In the XYB color space, colors are represented through X, Y, and B channels, with the Y channel representing luminance and X and B channels representing color information.
XYB is primarily used in the JPEG XL image format, suitable for enhancing image compression ratios and quality.
The XYB color space offers higher compression rates while maintaining image quality, making it very effective for web image transmission and storage.
