YUV(EBU) to P3 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.

P3 color space introduction

Also known as the P3 color space.There are 3 channels in total,Red,range from 0 to 1.Green,range from 0 to 1.Blue,range from 0 to 1.
P3 color space, also known as Display P3 or DCI-P3, was created by the Digital Cinema Initiatives (DCI) consortium for use in digital cinema and digital content creation.
P3 color space.
In the P3 color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels, offering a wider color gamut than the traditional sRGB color space.
P3 is primarily used in film production and high-end image processing, especially in situations where a wider gamut display is needed.
The P3 color space is widely used in professional-grade displays and digital cinema projection due to its ability to display more vivid and lifelike colors.
