YCbCr(YCC) to XYB 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.

XYB color space introduction

Also known as the XYB color space.There are 3 channels in total,X,range from -0.0154 to 0.0281.Y,range from 0 to 0.8453.B,range from -0.2778 to 0.388.
The XYB color space was developed by Google as part of their JPEG XL image format. It's designed to be more efficient for compression and more aligned with human vision than traditional color spaces like RGB.
XYB color space.
In the XYB color space, colors are represented through X, Y, and B channels, with the Y channel representing luminance and X and B channels representing color information.
XYB is primarily used in the JPEG XL image format, suitable for enhancing image compression ratios and quality.
The XYB color space offers higher compression rates while maintaining image quality, making it very effective for web image transmission and storage.
