YUV(EBU) to Linear 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.

Linear P3 color space introduction

Also known as the Linear 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.
Linear Display P3, or P3 Linear, is a variant of the P3 color space where the gamma correction applied in the standard Display P3 space is removed.
Linear Display P3 or P3 Linear.
In the Linear P3 color space, colors are represented through Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B) channels without gamma correction.
Linear P3 is primarily used in professional color grading, image processing, and computer graphics, where linear light representation is essential.
Due to its provision of direct linear light values, Linear P3 is particularly suited for applications requiring advanced image processing and precise color control.
