LCHuv(cielchuv) to CMY Converter - Color Space Converter

LCHuv(cielchuv) color space introduction

Also known as the LCHuv(cielchuv) color space.There are 3 channels in total, lightness,range from 0 to 100.chroma,range from 0 to 100.hue,range from 0 to 360.
Based on the CIELUV color space, proposed by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1976, it uses a cylindrical coordinate system instead of a rectangular one.
Commonly known as CIELCH_uv or LCH(uv), abbreviated as LCHuv.
The LCHuv color space expresses colors using lightness (L*), chroma (C*), and hue angle (h°), providing an intuitive way to describe colors.
The LCHuv color space is used in graphic and product design, especially suitable for color comparison and selection, and scenarios that require intuitive manipulation of colors.
The LCHuv color space is user-friendly for color selection based on hue and saturation, suitable for applications where the impact of lighting changes on color appearance needs to be considered.

CMY color space introduction

Also known as the CMY color space.There are 3 channels in total,cyan,commonly referred to as c,range from 0 to 100.magenta,commonly referred to as m,range from 0 to 100.yellow,commonly referred to as y,range from 0 to 100.
Source: CMY is based on the subtractive properties of color related to printing. It takes into account the ink or dye absorbing certain wavelengths of light from white light, thereby displaying color.
Primary name: CMY, which includes the Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow color channels.
Usage: Although CMY is not as commonly used in professional printing as CMYK, it is useful in understanding the basics of color mixing and printing. CMY color mode can also be found in certain digital art and design software.
Additionally, it's important to note that, in contrast to the RGB color space, CMY and RGB are complementary. Theoretically, Cyan (C) is the complement of Red (R), Magenta (M) is the complement of Green (G), and Yellow (Y) is the complement of Blue (B). Thus, CMY and RGB can be converted through corresponding relationships.
