HSL to OKHSV Converter - Color Space Converter

HSL color space introduction

Also known as the HSL color space.There are 3 channels in total, hue,range from 0 to 360.saturation,range from 0 to 100.lightness,range from 0 to 100.
Origin: HSL stands for Hue, Saturation, and Lightness. It provides an intuitive way to describe colors, aligning closely with how we typically discuss color properties such as hue, saturation, and lightness.
Primary Name: HSL, which includes three color channels: H (Hue), S (Saturation), and L (Lightness).
It's usually represented as a triplet, for instance: hsl(120, 100%, 50%) indicates a pure green color with 100% saturation and 50% lightness.
Usage: HSL is used in computer graphics, image editing, and style design, especially in scenarios where there's a need for intuitive color property adjustments. In CSS, HSL is also used as one of the methods to define colors.
Additionally, it's worth noting that HSL has clear conversion formulas with RGB. While RGB is a commonly used color model in modern display technology, adjusting colors directly in RGB may not be as intuitive as in the HSL space. HSL is similar to HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value), but they differ slightly in how they describe color brightness or luminance.

OKHSV color space introduction

Also known as the OKHSV color space.There are 3 channels in total,H,range from 0 to 360.S,range from 0 to 1.V,range from 0 to 1.
OKHSV is a color space designed by Björn Ottosson, derived from the OKLab color space. Like OKHSL, OKHSV is an adaptation of the traditional HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) model, aiming to offer a more perceptually uniform approach to color representation than the standard HSV model.
OKHSV color space.
In the OKHSV color space, colors are represented by Hue (H), Saturation (S), and Value (V), aligning more closely with human color perception and making color adjustments more consistent and intuitive.
OKHSV is primarily used in applications requiring perceptual uniformity and intuitive color adjustments, such as image processing and user interface design.
Due to its perceptual uniformity, OKHSV is more intuitive and consistent for color adjustments, particularly suited for graphic design and user interface layouts.
