CMY to LUV(cieluv,cie1976) Converter - Color Space Converter

CMY color space introduction

Also known as the CMY color space.There are 3 channels in total, cyan,commonly referred to as c,range from 0 to 100.magenta,commonly referred to as m,range from 0 to 100.yellow,commonly referred to as y,range from 0 to 100.
Source: CMY is based on the subtractive properties of color related to printing. It takes into account the ink or dye absorbing certain wavelengths of light from white light, thereby displaying color.
Primary name: CMY, which includes the Cyan, Magenta, and Yellow color channels.
Usage: Although CMY is not as commonly used in professional printing as CMYK, it is useful in understanding the basics of color mixing and printing. CMY color mode can also be found in certain digital art and design software.
Additionally, it's important to note that, in contrast to the RGB color space, CMY and RGB are complementary. Theoretically, Cyan (C) is the complement of Red (R), Magenta (M) is the complement of Green (G), and Yellow (Y) is the complement of Blue (B). Thus, CMY and RGB can be converted through corresponding relationships.

LUV(cieluv,cie1976) color space introduction

Also known as the LUV(cieluv,cie1976) color space.There are 3 channels in total,lightness,range from 0 to 100.u,range from -134 to 224.v,range from -140 to 122.
Developed by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1976 as a uniform color space that would more accurately reflect human visual perception.
Commonly known as CIELUV, the space is also referred to as L*u*v* or LUV.
Color in the CIELUV space is expressed with three coordinates: L* for lightness, u* for the green-red chromaticity component, and v* for the blue-yellow chromaticity component.
CIELUV is used in various industries where accurate color reproduction is needed, such as color printing, in the manufacturing of textiles and plastics, and in color television broadcasting.
The CIELUV color space is especially useful for applications that require taking into account the conditions under which colors are viewed, including the effects of different types of lighting on color appearance.
