YCbCr(YCC) to DLCH(DIN99 LCH) Converter - Color Space Converter

YCbCr(YCC) color space introduction

Also known as the YCbCr(YCC) color space.There are 3 channels in total, Y,range from 16 to 235.Cb,range from 16 to 240.Cr,range from 16 to 240.
The YCbCr color space was specifically designed for digital television and video compression standards like MPEG and JPEG, aiming to minimize data size while maintaining high-quality imagery during the compression process.
The primary name is YCbCr. It is often confused with YUV, although they are technically different.
The YCbCr color space is typically used in a digital format, expressed as a combination of three component values, like (Y, Cb, Cr). For 8-bit video signals, these components typically range from 16 to 235 for Y, and 16 to 240 for Cb and Cr.
YCbCr is predominantly used in digital video capture, processing, storage, and transmission. It forms the core color space for television broadcasting, DVD videos, and image compression standards such as JPEG.
In the YCbCr color space, Y represents the luminance component, while Cb and Cr represent the chrominance components of blue and red, separated from the Y component, allowing chroma subsampling to reduce data amount. As the human eye is more sensitive to luminance than to chrominance, this separation usually doesn't affect the viewing experience.

DLCH(DIN99 LCH) color space introduction

Also known as the DLCH(DIN99 LCH) color space.There are 3 channels in total,L,range from 0 to 100.C,range from 0 to 51.484.H,range from 0 to 360.
DIN99 LCH is a color space based on the DIN99 colorimetric system. It's an LCH (Lightness, Chroma, Hue) representation, which is a derivative of the CIELAB color space. The DIN99 system was developed to improve the perceptual uniformity of the LAB color space, making color differences more consistent with human vision.
DIN99 LCH color space.
In the DIN99 LCH color space, colors are represented by Lightness (L*99), Chroma (C*99), and Hue angle (h°99).
DIN99 LCH is commonly used in fields requiring precise color matching and analysis, such as the textile and plastics industries.
The DIN99 LCH color space is widely used in color science and industrial applications due to its perceptual uniformity in representing colors.
