RGB(sRGB) to LUV(cieluv,cie1976) Converter - Color Space Converter

RGB(sRGB) color space introduction

Also known as the RGB(sRGB) color space.There are 3 channels in total, red,commonly referred to as r,range from 0 to 255.green,commonly referred to as g,range from 0 to 255.blue,commonly referred to as b,range from 0 to 255.
Source: sRGB was jointly developed by Microsoft and Hewlett-Packard in 1996. Its purpose is to serve as a standard RGB color space, ensuring consistent color display across different devices and platforms.
Primary name is sRGB, also called Standard RGB, full name is Standard Red Green Blue.
Usage: sRGB is the most commonly used color space in everyday computer monitors, TVs, cameras, printers, etc. It is also the default color space for images, videos, and web pages on the internet.
Additionally, it's worth noting that sRGB has a specific gamma value (around 2.2), which results in a non-linear relationship between low and high brightness levels. This non-linearity is beneficial for human visual perception as it provides more color details in darker areas.

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.
