HSL to HSV(HSB) Converter - Color Space Converter

HSL color space introduction

Also known as the HSL color space.There are 3 channels in total, hue,range from 0 to 360.saturation,range from 0 to 100.lightness,range from 0 to 100.
Origin: HSL stands for Hue, Saturation, and Lightness. It provides an intuitive way to describe colors, aligning closely with how we typically discuss color properties such as hue, saturation, and lightness.
Primary Name: HSL, which includes three color channels: H (Hue), S (Saturation), and L (Lightness).
It's usually represented as a triplet, for instance: hsl(120, 100%, 50%) indicates a pure green color with 100% saturation and 50% lightness.
Usage: HSL is used in computer graphics, image editing, and style design, especially in scenarios where there's a need for intuitive color property adjustments. In CSS, HSL is also used as one of the methods to define colors.
Additionally, it's worth noting that HSL has clear conversion formulas with RGB. While RGB is a commonly used color model in modern display technology, adjusting colors directly in RGB may not be as intuitive as in the HSL space. HSL is similar to HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value), but they differ slightly in how they describe color brightness or luminance.

HSV(HSB) color space introduction

Also known as the HSV(HSB) color space.There are 3 channels in total,hue,range from 0 to 360.saturation,range from 0 to 100.value,range from 0 to 100.
Origin: The HSV color space was invented in the 1970s with the goal of combining an intuitive understanding of color with the needs of digital color processing.
Main Names: HSV or HSB (where B stands for Brightness), which includes three color channels H (Hue), S (Saturation), and V (Value/Brightness).
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: hsv(120, 100%, 100%) represents a pure green color with maximum saturation and brightness.
Usage: Used in color detection and segmentation in image analysis and processing, color selection and adjustment in graphic design software, and in color pickers in user interface design.
Additionally, HSV can be algorithmically converted to and from RGB. The HSV model is highly intuitive for color adjustments, allowing users to independently alter the perceptual attributes of color. HSV is similar to HSL, but HSV's Value (V) takes into account the effects of hue and saturation, while HSL's Lightness (L) represents the midpoint between pure black and pure white.
