HWB to LCHab(cielch,LCH,HLC,LSH) Converter - Color Space Converter

HWB color space introduction

Also known as the HWB color space.There are 3 channels in total, hue,range from 0 to 360.whiteness,range from 0 to 100.blackness,range from 0 to 100.
Origin: The HWB color space is based on the HSL and HSV models and was proposed by Alvy Ray Smith in 1996 with the aim of simplifying the color selection process.
Primary Names: HWB, representing Hue, Whiteness, and Blackness.
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: hwb(120, 30%, 20%) represents a green hue with a blend of 30% white and 20% black.
Usage Scope: Primarily used in computer graphics for color picking, especially in web design and other applications that require intuitive color selection.
Additionally, the HWB model was designed to simplify color picking in user interfaces, making the transition from pure color to white or black more intuitive.

LCHab(cielch,LCH,HLC,LSH) color space introduction

Also known as the LCHab(cielch,LCH,HLC,LSH) color space.There are 3 channels in total,lightness,range from 0 to 100.chroma,range from 0 to 100.hue,range from 0 to 360.
Derived from the CIELAB color space, it represents colors in a cylindrical coordinate system.
Commonly known as CIELCH or LCH, also referred to as LCH_ab.
Colors in the LCH color space are expressed using lightness (L*), chroma (C*), and hue angle (H°), providing a more intuitive way of specifying colors compared to the Cartesian coordinates used in CIELAB.
The LCH color space is extensively used in industries and applications where accurate color differentiation is crucial, such as graphic design, printing, and paint manufacturing.
The LCH color space can be more convenient for understanding color relationships and specifying colors in a more perceptual manner.
