LCHuv(cielchuv) to OSA-UCS 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.

OSA-UCS color space introduction

Also known as the OSA-UCS color space.There are 3 channels in total,L,range from -10 to 8.j,range from -6 to 12.g,range from -10 to 6.
The OSA-UCS color space was developed by the Optical Society of America in the 1970s with the goal of creating a color space that provided a more uniform appearance than the CIE 1931 XYZ color space.
The OSA-UCS color space, also known as the Optical Society of America Uniform Color Scale.
Colors in the OSA-UCS color space are represented by three parameters: lightness (L), hue (J), and chroma (g).
OSA-UCS is used in the field of visual sciences for the research and precise measurement of color differences due to its uniformity.
The application of the OSA-UCS color space is relatively limited in the commercial sector, primarily because it is more complex to calculate and not as widely used as the CIELAB color space.
