LCH to YCgCo Converter - Color Space Converter

Also known as the LCH color space.There are 3 channels in total, Lightness,range from 0 to 100.Chroma,range from 0 to 150.Hue,range from 0 to 360.

The LCH color space is a cylindrical representation of the CIELAB color model.

LCH color space.

In the LCH color space, colors are represented by Lightness (L*), Chroma or Purity (C*), and Hue angle (H°).

The LCH color space is commonly used in color design and analysis, particularly when intuitive handling of colors is needed.

The LCH color space facilitates intuitive color selection and adjustment by users based on hue, saturation, and lightness.

Also known as the YCgCo color space.There are 3 channels in total,Y,range from 0 to 1.Cg,range from -0.5 to 0.5.Co,range from -0.5 to 0.5.

Origin: The YCgCo color space was designed for digital video processing to provide a simple and reversible color transformation method, serving as an approximation of the YCbCr color space.

Primary Names: YCgCo color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, 'Cg' stands for the green difference component, and 'Co' represents the red-blue difference component.

Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YCgCo(0.5, -0.25, 0.25) represents a color with specific luminance and chromatic differences.

Usage Scope: Mainly used in image coding and digital video processing, for example, it is applied in encoding standards such as JPEG XR and H.264/MPEG-4 AVC.

Additionally, due to the simple conversion process of YCgCo, it supports efficient hardware implementation and can be losslessly transformed back to the RGB format.
