YUV(EBU) to ACEScg Converter - Color Space Converter

YUV(EBU) color space introduction

Also known as the YUV(EBU) color space.There are 3 channels in total, Y,range from 0 to 1.U,range from -0.5 to 0.5.V,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
Origin: The YUV color space was designed for analog video signal transmission, separating luminance information (Y) from chrominance information (U and V) to improve the efficiency of color transmission and ensure compatibility with black and white television.
Primary Names: YUV color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, and 'U' and 'V' represent the chrominance components, describing the difference in color from a reference white.
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YUV(0.5, -0.33, 0.25) represents a color with specific luminance and chrominance.
Usage Scope: Mainly used in analog video transmission and compression. In modern applications, YUV is common in digital video encoding and broadcasting, video editing software, and image processing.
Additionally, the YUV format is very effective in color processing to reduce bandwidth requirements because it allows the resolution of chrominance components to be reduced during transmission rather than luminance components, taking advantage of the human eye's greater sensitivity to luminance over chrominance changes.

ACEScg color space introduction

Also known as the ACEScg color space.There are 3 channels in total,Red,range from 0 to 65504.Green,range from 0 to 65504.Blue,range from 0 to 65504.
ACEScg is part of the ACES (Academy Color Encoding System) workflow, specifically tailored for digital visual effects, computer graphics, and animation. Developed by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, it provides a standardized color management framework for motion picture production, post-production, and archival industries.
ACEScg, stands for Academy Color Encoding System - Computer Graphics.
In the ACEScg color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels, specifically designed for high dynamic range and wide color gamut image processing.
ACEScg is primarily used in computer graphics, visual effects, and animation for compositing and rendering, offering a wide gamut color space that is optimal for these applications.
ACEScg provides professionals in computer graphics and animation with a unified and consistent approach to handling color, particularly in maintaining color consistency and accuracy across complex multi-software workflows.
