LAB(cielab) to LUV(cieluv,cie1976) Converter - Color Space Converter

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.

Also known as the LUV(cieluv,cie1976) color space.There are 3 channels in total,lightness,range from 0 to 100.u,range from -134 to 224.v,range from -140 to 122.

Developed by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1976 as a uniform color space that would more accurately reflect human visual perception.

Commonly known as CIELUV, the space is also referred to as L*u*v* or LUV.

Color in the CIELUV space is expressed with three coordinates: L* for lightness, u* for the green-red chromaticity component, and v* for the blue-yellow chromaticity component.

CIELUV is used in various industries where accurate color reproduction is needed, such as color printing, in the manufacturing of textiles and plastics, and in color television broadcasting.

The CIELUV color space is especially useful for applications that require taking into account the conditions under which colors are viewed, including the effects of different types of lighting on color appearance.
