LABh(hunter-lab,hlab) to REC.2100-HLG Converter - Color Space Converter

LABh(hunter-lab,hlab) color space introduction

Also known as the LABh(hunter-lab,hlab) color space.There are 3 channels in total, lightness,range from 0 to 100.a,range from -128 to 128.b,range from -128 to 128.
Developed by Richard S. Hunter in the 1940s as a color scale based on opponent-color theory. It is an adaptation of the CIE XYZ color space to be more perceptually linear.
Often referred to as Hunter Lab, or Lab Hunter.
Colors in the Hunter Lab color space are expressed through three coordinates: L (for lightness), a (red/green value), and b (blue/yellow value). These are calculated from CIE XYZ using Hunter's specific equations.
Hunter Lab is used in various industries for color matching, quality control, and other applications where a perceptually linear space is beneficial for color difference measurement.
Although similar to CIELAB, the Hunter Lab color space is used less frequently in contemporary applications. However, it remains significant in industries that adopted it early on and continue to rely on its specific color-rendering properties.

REC.2100-HLG color space introduction

Also known as the REC.2100-HLG color space.There are 3 channels in total,Red,range from 0 to 1.Green,range from 0 to 1.Blue,range from 0 to 1.
Rec. 2100 HLG (Hybrid Log-Gamma) is an HDR standard developed by the BBC and NHK, designed for broadcast television. It supports a wide range of brightness levels for more realistic and dynamic imaging.
Rec. 2100 HLG color space.
In the Rec. 2100 HLG color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels, adapting to different brightness levels of HDR displays.
Rec. 2100 HLG is primarily used in broadcast television supporting HDR, and it is backward compatible with standard dynamic range (SDR) displays.
The backward compatibility of Rec. 2100 HLG allows the same content to be displayed on both HDR and SDR displays without needing different versions.
