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.

YDbDr color space introduction

Also known as the YDbDr color space.There are 3 channels in total,Y,range from 0 to 1.Db,range from -1.333 to 1.333.Dr,range from -1.333 to 1.333.
Origin: The YDbDr color space was designed for the European SECAM color television system for color encoding in analog television broadcasting.
Primary Names: YDbDr color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, 'Db' and 'Dr' respectively represent the blue and red difference components.
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YDbDr(0.5, -0.1, 0.9) represents a color with specific luminance and chromaticity differences.
Usage Scope: Primarily used in SECAM standard color television broadcasting, which is a color video standard specific to certain countries and regions.
Additionally, compared to PAL and NTSC, SECAM uses frequency division multiplexing to separate the chrominance components, reducing cross-color interference during color image transmission.
