YCgCo to XYZ D50 Converter - Color Space Converter

YCgCo color space introduction

Also known as the YCgCo color space.There are 3 channels in total, Y,range from 0 to 1.Cg,range from -0.5 to 0.5.Co,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
Origin: The YCgCo color space was designed for digital video processing to provide a simple and reversible color transformation method, serving as an approximation of the YCbCr color space.
Primary Names: YCgCo color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, 'Cg' stands for the green difference component, and 'Co' represents the red-blue difference component.
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YCgCo(0.5, -0.25, 0.25) represents a color with specific luminance and chromatic differences.
Usage Scope: Mainly used in image coding and digital video processing, for example, it is applied in encoding standards such as JPEG XR and H.264/MPEG-4 AVC.
Additionally, due to the simple conversion process of YCgCo, it supports efficient hardware implementation and can be losslessly transformed back to the RGB format.

XYZ D50 color space introduction

Also known as the XYZ D50 color space.There are 3 channels in total,X,range from 0 to 1.Y,range from 0 to 1.Z,range from 0 to 1.
XYZ with D50 illuminant, referred to as XYZ D50, is a version of the CIE XYZ color space referenced to the D50 standard illuminant. The D50 illuminant represents a color temperature of approximately 5000K and is often used in the graphic arts and printing industries.
XYZ D50 color space.
In the XYZ D50 color space, colors are represented through X, Y, and Z dimensions, referenced to the D50 standard illuminant.
XYZ D50 is primarily used for comparing colors under daylight conditions, especially in the graphic arts and printing industries.
The XYZ D50 color space, with its daylight reference standard, is particularly useful in color proofing and management.
