LAB(cielab) to HSP 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.

HSP color space introduction

Also known as the HSP color space.There are 3 channels in total,hue,range from 0 to 360.saturation,range from 0 to 100.perceived_brightness,range from 0 to 255.
The HSP color space is designed to represent the perceived brightness of colors more accurately than traditional RGB or HSL color models, taking into account the nonlinear sensitivity of human eyes to different color wavelengths.
HSP color space.
In the HSP color space, colors are expressed through Hue (H), Saturation (S), and Perceived brightness (P), where perceived brightness is calculated using specific weights for the RGB channels that mimic the human eye's response to red, green, and blue.
The HSP color space is commonly used in applications that require an accurate reflection of color brightness perception, such as image processing and user interface design.
The HSP color space can provide a brightness representation that is closer to human visual perception, especially when adjusting the lightness and darkness of colors.
