LAB(cielab) to HSLuv(HuSL) 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.

HSLuv(HuSL) color space introduction

Also known as the HSLuv(HuSL) 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.
HSLuv is a human-friendly alternative to the CIELUV color space, designed to provide a more perceptually uniform color mapping while retaining the convenience of the HSL representation.
Known as the HSLuv color space.
Colors are represented by three parameters: hue (H), saturation (S), and lightness (L), attempting to maintain perceptual uniformity of saturation across the hue circle.
HSLuv is commonly used in fields requiring intuitive color selection and perceptual uniformity, such as user interface design and artistic creation.
HSLuv adjusts the hue circle of HSL to achieve the goal of maintaining color perceptual uniformity across different levels of lightness.
