HEX to YDbDr Converter - Color Space Converter

Also known as the HEX color space.

Source: Hexadecimal color codes originated from early computer graphic design, where there was a need for a concise way to represent colors. Since each RGB channel can have 256 possible values (ranging from 0 to 255), they can be represented as a two-digit hexadecimal number.

Primary name: Hexadecimal color code

It is represented using 6 hexadecimal characters, typically prefixed with '#'. For instance, red can be represented as #FF0000; the first two characters represent the red channel, the middle two represent the green channel, and the last two represent the blue channel. Occasionally, there might be 8 characters where the first two represent transparency (alpha channel), but this is not standard.

Usage: Mainly used in web design and CSS style definitions, but also in other scenarios where a quick and concise representation of color is required.

Pros: Hexadecimal color codes offer a compact representation of colors, making it very suitable for web and coding environments. Cons: To the general public, hexadecimal codes might not be as intuitive as other methods. For instance, seeing #FFA07A might not immediately suggest the color light salmon to most people.

Also known as the YDbDr color space.There are 3 channels in total,Y,range from 0 to 1.Db,range from -1.333 to 1.333.Dr,range from -1.333 to 1.333.

Origin: The YDbDr color space was designed for the European SECAM color television system for color encoding in analog television broadcasting.

Primary Names: YDbDr color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, 'Db' and 'Dr' respectively represent the blue and red difference components.

Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YDbDr(0.5, -0.1, 0.9) represents a color with specific luminance and chromaticity differences.

Usage Scope: Primarily used in SECAM standard color television broadcasting, which is a color video standard specific to certain countries and regions.

Additionally, compared to PAL and NTSC, SECAM uses frequency division multiplexing to separate the chrominance components, reducing cross-color interference during color image transmission.
