LAB(cielab) to HPLuv(HuSLp) Converter - Color Space Converter

LAB(cielab) color space introduction

Also known as the LAB(cielab) color space.There are 3 channels in total, lightness,range from 0 to 100.a,range from -100 to 100.b,range from -100 to 100.
Defined by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1976, as an improvement and extension of the CIE XYZ color space, designed to be a closer approximation to human visual non-linearity.
Commonly known as CIELAB color space, abbreviated as L*a*b* or Lab.
Lab colors are typically represented by three coordinates: L* for lightness, a* for green to red chromaticity, and b* for blue to yellow chromaticity. They can be algorithmically converted to other color spaces for display or printing on different devices.
The Lab color space is extensively used in color measurement and management, particularly important in fields requiring precise color matching and assessment such as digital printing, photography, image analysis, and industrial color testing.
The advantage of the Lab color space lies in its device independence, allowing for consistent and accurate color conversion across different devices and software.

HPLuv(HuSLp) color space introduction

Also known as the HPLuv(HuSLp) 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.
HPLuv is a variant of the HSLuv color space, designed to provide softer tones, focusing primarily on lighter colors.
Known as the HPLuv color space.
Similar to HSLuv, HPLuv defines colors using hue (H), pastel (P), and lightness (L), but with a constraint on saturation to create soft tones that avoid high chromaticity.
HPLuv is commonly used in graphic design and artistic creation, particularly where soft and refined tones are sought.
HPLuv provides a color space that's easy for designers to use, allowing them to create perceptually uniform soft tones, especially suited for designs that need to avoid intense colors.
