YCgCo to Adobe® 98 RGB compatible Converter - Color Space Converter

YCgCo color space introduction

Also known as the YCgCo color space.There are 3 channels in total, Y,range from 0 to 1.Cg,range from -0.5 to 0.5.Co,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
Origin: The YCgCo color space was designed for digital video processing to provide a simple and reversible color transformation method, serving as an approximation of the YCbCr color space.
Primary Names: YCgCo color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, 'Cg' stands for the green difference component, and 'Co' represents the red-blue difference component.
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YCgCo(0.5, -0.25, 0.25) represents a color with specific luminance and chromatic differences.
Usage Scope: Mainly used in image coding and digital video processing, for example, it is applied in encoding standards such as JPEG XR and H.264/MPEG-4 AVC.
Additionally, due to the simple conversion process of YCgCo, it supports efficient hardware implementation and can be losslessly transformed back to the RGB format.

Adobe® 98 RGB compatible color space introduction

Also known as the Adobe® 98 RGB compatible color space.There are 3 channels in total,Red,range from 0 to 1.Green,range from 0 to 1.Blue,range from 0 to 1.
Adobe RGB (1998) was developed by Adobe Systems in 1998, designed to encompass most of the colors achievable on CMYK color printers, but using RGB primary colors on devices like computer displays.
Adobe RGB (1998), often abbreviated as Adobe RGB or A98RGB.
In the Adobe RGB color space, colors are represented through three channels: Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B), offering a wider color gamut than the standard sRGB color space.
The Adobe RGB color space is widely used in high-end photography and printing industries due to its broad range of colors.
Due to its wide gamut, Adobe RGB is particularly suitable for applications requiring high color quality and depth, such as professional photography and high-quality printing.
