UCS(cie1960) color space introduction

Also known as the UCS(cie1960) color space.There are 3 channels in total, U,range from 0 to 100.V,range from 0 to 100.W,range from 0 to 100.
Developed by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1960, it was intended to provide a uniform color scale that would more closely align with human vision.
The primary name is CIE 1960 UCS (Uniform Color Scale). It is also referred to as the CIE 1960 (u, v) chromaticity space.
Colors in the CIE 1960 UCS are expressed in terms of chromaticity coordinates 'u' and 'v' derived from the CIE XYZ color space, with the addition of a 'W' coordinate representing the luminance factor.
The CIE 1960 UCS is used for applications where a more perceptually linear color space is useful. It's often used in color research and for specifying the colors of light sources and illuminants.
The CIE 1960 UCS is an intermediate step towards the development of subsequent color spaces that are more perceptually uniform, such as CIELUV and CIELAB.

LCH color space introduction

Also known as the LCH color space.There are 3 channels in total,Lightness,range from 0 to 100.Chroma,range from 0 to 150.Hue,range from 0 to 360.
The LCH color space is a cylindrical representation of the CIELAB color model.
LCH color space.
In the LCH color space, colors are represented by Lightness (L*), Chroma or Purity (C*), and Hue angle (H°).
The LCH color space is commonly used in color design and analysis, particularly when intuitive handling of colors is needed.
The LCH color space facilitates intuitive color selection and adjustment by users based on hue, saturation, and lightness.
