Oklab to YUV(EBU) Converter - Color Space Converter

Oklab color space introduction

Also known as the Oklab color space.There are 3 channels in total, L,range from 0 to 1.a,range from -0.4 to 0.4.b,range from -0.4 to 0.4.
OKLab is a perceptually uniform color space developed by Björn Ottosson, designed as a simple and computationally efficient color space that closely aligns with human vision.
OKLab color space.
In the OKLab color space, colors are represented by Lightness (L), green-red chroma component (a), and blue-yellow chroma component (b).
OKLab is commonly used for tasks where color difference is important, such as color grading, graphic design, and image processing.
Due to its perceptual uniformity and simplicity in computation, OKLab is particularly useful in color editing and image analysis.

YUV(EBU) color space introduction

Also known as the YUV(EBU) color space.There are 3 channels in total,Y,range from 0 to 1.U,range from -0.5 to 0.5.V,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
Origin: The YUV color space was designed for analog video signal transmission, separating luminance information (Y) from chrominance information (U and V) to improve the efficiency of color transmission and ensure compatibility with black and white television.
Primary Names: YUV color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, and 'U' and 'V' represent the chrominance components, describing the difference in color from a reference white.
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YUV(0.5, -0.33, 0.25) represents a color with specific luminance and chrominance.
Usage Scope: Mainly used in analog video transmission and compression. In modern applications, YUV is common in digital video encoding and broadcasting, video editing software, and image processing.
Additionally, the YUV format is very effective in color processing to reduce bandwidth requirements because it allows the resolution of chrominance components to be reduced during transmission rather than luminance components, taking advantage of the human eye's greater sensitivity to luminance over chrominance changes.
