YUV(EBU) to OKHSV 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.

OKHSV color space introduction

Also known as the OKHSV color space.There are 3 channels in total,H,range from 0 to 360.S,range from 0 to 1.V,range from 0 to 1.
OKHSV is a color space designed by Björn Ottosson, derived from the OKLab color space. Like OKHSL, OKHSV is an adaptation of the traditional HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) model, aiming to offer a more perceptually uniform approach to color representation than the standard HSV model.
OKHSV color space.
In the OKHSV color space, colors are represented by Hue (H), Saturation (S), and Value (V), aligning more closely with human color perception and making color adjustments more consistent and intuitive.
OKHSV is primarily used in applications requiring perceptual uniformity and intuitive color adjustments, such as image processing and user interface design.
Due to its perceptual uniformity, OKHSV is more intuitive and consistent for color adjustments, particularly suited for graphic design and user interface layouts.
