OSA-UCS to HCY Converter - Color Space Converter

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.

HCY color space introduction

Also known as the HCY color space.There are 3 channels in total,hue,range from 0 to 360.chroma,range from 0 to 100.luminance,range from 0 to 255.
The HCY color space represents colors in terms of hue, chroma (colorfulness relative to brightness), and luma (brightness or luminance), offering an alternative to color spaces like HSL and HSV.
Known as the HCY color space.
Colors are defined by hue (H), chroma (C), and luma (Y), with luma (Y) being a representation of brightness that corresponds more closely to human visual perception.
The HCY color space is often used in applications where the perception of color brightness is important, such as video and image processing, and user interface design.
Compared to HSL or HSV, HCY offers a representation of colors that aligns more with human perception of brightness, especially effective during color transformation and adjustment.
