YUV(EBU) to DLCH(DIN99 LCH) Converter - Color Space Converter

YUV(EBU) color space introduction

Also known as the YUV(EBU) color space.There are 3 channels in total, Y,range from 0 to 1.U,range from -0.5 to 0.5.V,range from -0.5 to 0.5.
Origin: The YUV color space was designed for analog video signal transmission, separating luminance information (Y) from chrominance information (U and V) to improve the efficiency of color transmission and ensure compatibility with black and white television.
Primary Names: YUV color space, where 'Y' represents the luminance component, and 'U' and 'V' represent the chrominance components, describing the difference in color from a reference white.
Typically expressed as a triplet, for example: YUV(0.5, -0.33, 0.25) represents a color with specific luminance and chrominance.
Usage Scope: Mainly used in analog video transmission and compression. In modern applications, YUV is common in digital video encoding and broadcasting, video editing software, and image processing.
Additionally, the YUV format is very effective in color processing to reduce bandwidth requirements because it allows the resolution of chrominance components to be reduced during transmission rather than luminance components, taking advantage of the human eye's greater sensitivity to luminance over chrominance changes.

DLCH(DIN99 LCH) color space introduction

Also known as the DLCH(DIN99 LCH) color space.There are 3 channels in total,L,range from 0 to 100.C,range from 0 to 51.484.H,range from 0 to 360.
DIN99 LCH is a color space based on the DIN99 colorimetric system. It's an LCH (Lightness, Chroma, Hue) representation, which is a derivative of the CIELAB color space. The DIN99 system was developed to improve the perceptual uniformity of the LAB color space, making color differences more consistent with human vision.
DIN99 LCH color space.
In the DIN99 LCH color space, colors are represented by Lightness (L*99), Chroma (C*99), and Hue angle (h°99).
DIN99 LCH is commonly used in fields requiring precise color matching and analysis, such as the textile and plastics industries.
The DIN99 LCH color space is widely used in color science and industrial applications due to its perceptual uniformity in representing colors.
