YCbCr(YCC) to Lab D65 Converter - Color Space Converter

YCbCr(YCC) color space introduction

Also known as the YCbCr(YCC) color space.There are 3 channels in total, Y,range from 16 to 235.Cb,range from 16 to 240.Cr,range from 16 to 240.
The YCbCr color space was specifically designed for digital television and video compression standards like MPEG and JPEG, aiming to minimize data size while maintaining high-quality imagery during the compression process.
The primary name is YCbCr. It is often confused with YUV, although they are technically different.
The YCbCr color space is typically used in a digital format, expressed as a combination of three component values, like (Y, Cb, Cr). For 8-bit video signals, these components typically range from 16 to 235 for Y, and 16 to 240 for Cb and Cr.
YCbCr is predominantly used in digital video capture, processing, storage, and transmission. It forms the core color space for television broadcasting, DVD videos, and image compression standards such as JPEG.
In the YCbCr color space, Y represents the luminance component, while Cb and Cr represent the chrominance components of blue and red, separated from the Y component, allowing chroma subsampling to reduce data amount. As the human eye is more sensitive to luminance than to chrominance, this separation usually doesn't affect the viewing experience.

Lab D65 color space introduction

Also known as the Lab D65 color space.There are 3 channels in total,L,range from 0 to 100.a,range from -125 to 125.b,range from -125 to 125.
Lab-D65 is a specific instance of the CIELAB color space that uses the D65 illuminant as its reference white point.
Lab-D65 color space.
In the Lab-D65 color space, colors are represented by Lightness (L*), a* (green-red chroma component), and b* (blue-yellow chroma component), with reference to the D65 illuminant.
Lab-D65 is commonly used in color-related applications that require a daylight reference, such as image processing, printing, and photography.
The Lab-D65 color space is widely used to ensure consistency and accuracy of colors across different devices and lighting conditions.
