YUV(EBU) to XYZ D50 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.

XYZ D50 color space introduction

Also known as the XYZ D50 color space.There are 3 channels in total,X,range from 0 to 1.Y,range from 0 to 1.Z,range from 0 to 1.
XYZ with D50 illuminant, referred to as XYZ D50, is a version of the CIE XYZ color space referenced to the D50 standard illuminant. The D50 illuminant represents a color temperature of approximately 5000K and is often used in the graphic arts and printing industries.
XYZ D50 color space.
In the XYZ D50 color space, colors are represented through X, Y, and Z dimensions, referenced to the D50 standard illuminant.
XYZ D50 is primarily used for comparing colors under daylight conditions, especially in the graphic arts and printing industries.
The XYZ D50 color space, with its daylight reference standard, is particularly useful in color proofing and management.
