OSA-UCS to YIQ Converter - Color Space Converter

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.

Also known as the YIQ color space.There are 3 channels in total,Y,range from 0 to 1.I,range from -0.5957 to 0.5957.Q,range from -0.5226 to 0.5226.

Origin: The YIQ color space was specifically designed for the North American NTSC color television standard to accommodate compatibility between color and monochrome television broadcasts.

Primary Names: YIQ color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, 'I' represents the in-phase component, and 'Q' represents the quadrature component.

Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YIQ(0.5, 0.2, 0.3) represents a color with specific luminance and chromaticity.

Usage Scope: Mainly used in the North American NTSC (National Television System Committee) color television broadcasting system. Although less used in modern digital technology, it played a significant role during the era of analog television.

Additionally, the YIQ color space allows old black and white television receivers to receive and correctly display the luminance signal from color broadcasts without interference from the color information.
