CMYK to ICTCP Converter - Color Space Converter

CMYK color space introduction

Also known as the CMYK color space.There are 4 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.black,commonly referred to as k,range from 0 to 100.
Source: CMYK is derived from the process of color printing. It's the result of the subtractive process, meaning the colors on the original white paper are achieved by subtracting certain colors from white.
Primary name: CMYK, full name being Cyan Magenta Yellow Key, where 'Key' typically refers to Black.
Usage: CMYK is mainly used for color printing, such as in magazines, brochures, posters, etc. It's also employed in graphic design related to printing.
Additionally, it's important to note that CMYK cannot represent all the colors in the RGB color space, especially those very bright ones. This is called a 'color gamut', and different color spaces have different gamuts. Furthermore, Black (K) is introduced in CMYK because pure CMY color mixing typically cannot produce a true black, but rather a deep brown.

ICTCP color space introduction

Also known as the ICTCP color space.There are 3 channels in total,I,range from 0 to 1.CT,range from -0.5 to 0.5.CP,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
The ICtCp color representation model was developed for high dynamic range (HDR) and wide color gamut (WCG) media, representing I (Intensity), Ct (Chroma of red-green), and Cp (Chroma of blue-yellow).
ICtCp color space.
In the ICtCp color space, colors are represented through Intensity (I), Chroma of red-green (Ct), and Chroma of blue-yellow (Cp).
ICtCp is primarily used for HDR and WCG video formats, intended to replace the YCbCr color space, offering better color difference encoding and improved efficiency for these advanced video applications.
The ICtCp color space is particularly suitable for handling HDR and WCG video content, providing a color representation that aligns more closely with human visual perception.
