YCbCr(YCC) to UVW(cieuvw,cie1964) Converter - Color Space Converter

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.

Also known as the UVW(cieuvw,cie1964) color space.There are 3 channels in total,U,range from -134 to 224.V,range from -140 to 122.W,range from 0 to 100.

Developed by the CIE in 1964 as an improvement over the CIE 1960 UCS for better perceptual uniformity across different hues and lightness levels.

It is known as the CIE 1964 (U^*, V^*, W^*) color space, and commonly abbreviated as CIE UVW.

The color in the CIE UVW space is represented by three coordinates: (U^*), (V^*), and (W^*). These are calculated from the XYZ coordinates with a series of transformations intended to achieve a more uniform color space, taking into account the luminance factor.

The CIE UVW color space is used in specialized applications that require a uniform measure of color differences, such as in colorimetry research and the development of color standards.

The CIE UVW color space is less commonly used in practical applications today, having been largely replaced by more advanced color spaces like CIELAB and CIELUV, which offer better perceptual uniformity.
