HCY to ProPhoto RGB Converter - Color Space Converter

HCY color space introduction

Also known as the HCY color space.There are 3 channels in total, hue,range from 0 to 360.chroma,range from 0 to 100.luminance,range from 0 to 255.
The HCY color space represents colors in terms of hue, chroma (colorfulness relative to brightness), and luma (brightness or luminance), offering an alternative to color spaces like HSL and HSV.
Known as the HCY color space.
Colors are defined by hue (H), chroma (C), and luma (Y), with luma (Y) being a representation of brightness that corresponds more closely to human visual perception.
The HCY color space is often used in applications where the perception of color brightness is important, such as video and image processing, and user interface design.
Compared to HSL or HSV, HCY offers a representation of colors that aligns more with human perception of brightness, especially effective during color transformation and adjustment.

ProPhoto RGB color space introduction

Also known as the ProPhoto RGB 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.
ProPhoto RGB, also known as ROMM RGB (Reference Output Medium Metric), was developed by Kodak. It offers an exceptionally wide gamut, designed for use in professional photography to ensure reproducibility of most colors found in nature.
ProPhoto RGB color space.
In the ProPhoto RGB color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels, with a gamut much wider than traditional sRGB.
ProPhoto RGB is primarily used in the field of professional photography, particularly suitable for processing images with high dynamic range and wide color gamut.
Due to its vast gamut, ProPhoto RGB is especially suited for high-end image processing and printing tasks that require extreme color fidelity.
