YUV(EBU) to 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.

LCH color space introduction

Also known as the LCH color space.There are 3 channels in total,Lightness,range from 0 to 100.Chroma,range from 0 to 150.Hue,range from 0 to 360.
The LCH color space is a cylindrical representation of the CIELAB color model.
LCH color space.
In the LCH color space, colors are represented by Lightness (L*), Chroma or Purity (C*), and Hue angle (H°).
The LCH color space is commonly used in color design and analysis, particularly when intuitive handling of colors is needed.
The LCH color space facilitates intuitive color selection and adjustment by users based on hue, saturation, and lightness.
