YPbPr(Y/PB/PR,YPRPB,PRPBY,PBPRY,Y/Pb/Pr,YPrPb,PrPbY,PbPrY,Y/R-Y/B-Y,Y(R-Y)(B-Y),R-Y,B-Y) color space introduction

Also known as the YPbPr(Y/PB/PR,YPRPB,PRPBY,PBPRY,Y/Pb/Pr,YPrPb,PrPbY,PbPrY,Y/R-Y/B-Y,Y(R-Y)(B-Y),R-Y,B-Y) color space.There are 3 channels in total, Y,range from 0 to 1.Pb,range from -0.5 to 0.5.Pr,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
Origin: The YPbPr color space originates from analog television broadcasting and component video technology, designed to be compatible with black-and-white television while efficiently transmitting color information.
Primary Names: YPbPr color space, where 'Y' is for luminance, 'Pb' stands for the blue difference component, and 'Pr' represents the red difference component.
YPbPr is typically expressed as three separate signals, for example: YPbPr(0.6, 0.2, 0.15) representing specific luminance and color differences.
Usage Scope: It's primarily used for analog television signals and connecting devices such as DVD players, video game consoles, and home theater systems to TVs.
Additionally, YPbPr is designed to separate the luminance (Y) from the color information (Pb and Pr), which is beneficial for black-and-white displays and synchronization in analog transmission.

LAB(cielab) color space introduction

Also known as the LAB(cielab) color space.There are 3 channels in total,lightness,range from 0 to 100.a,range from -100 to 100.b,range from -100 to 100.
Defined by the International Commission on Illumination (CIE) in 1976, as an improvement and extension of the CIE XYZ color space, designed to be a closer approximation to human visual non-linearity.
Commonly known as CIELAB color space, abbreviated as L*a*b* or Lab.
Lab colors are typically represented by three coordinates: L* for lightness, a* for green to red chromaticity, and b* for blue to yellow chromaticity. They can be algorithmically converted to other color spaces for display or printing on different devices.
The Lab color space is extensively used in color measurement and management, particularly important in fields requiring precise color matching and assessment such as digital printing, photography, image analysis, and industrial color testing.
The advantage of the Lab color space lies in its device independence, allowing for consistent and accurate color conversion across different devices and software.
