LCHuv(cielchuv) to YcCbcCrc 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.

YcCbcCrc color space introduction

Also known as the YcCbcCrc color space.There are 3 channels in total,Yc,range from 0 to 1.Cbc,range from -0.5 to 0.5.Crc,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
The YcCbcCrc color space is based on the traditional YCbCr color space, optimized for chrominance components of High Definition Television (HDTV) signals to accommodate video signals of different resolutions during transmission and processing.
YcCbcCrc uses a component representation method similar to YCbCr, usually including a luminance component Yc and two chrominance components Cbc and Crc. The difference lies in the scaling factors for Cbc and Crc, which are adjusted according to different HDTV standards. In 8-bit video signals, the range of values for Yc, Cbc, and Crc may vary depending on the standard.
This color space is primarily used in professional video production and editing, excelling in video compression and broadcast transmission, especially when dealing with high-definition video signals.
YcCbcCrc adapts to higher resolution video signals with different scaling and offset compared to standard YCbCr. This can improve the representation of chrominance signals, particularly during color conversion and color grading processes.
