Wikipedia

  1. Chromaticity

    Chromaticity is an objective specification of the quality of a color regardless of its luminance. Chromaticity consists of two independent parameters, often specified as hue (h) and colorfulness (s), where the latter is alternatively called saturation, chroma, intensity, or excitation purity. This number of parameters follows from trichromacy of vision of most humans, which is assumed by most models in color science.

  1. chromaticity

    Chromaticity refers to the quality of color characterized by its hue (dominant wavelength) and saturation (purity), independently from its luminance (brightness). It is often used in colorimetry and color theory to quantify the specific tone of a color. Chromaticity coordinates are used to plot color measurements in color spaces, such as the CIE 1931 Chromaticity diagram.

  1. Chromaticity

    Chromaticity is an objective specification of the quality of a color regardless of its luminance, that is, as determined by its hue and colorfulness. In color science, the white point of an illuminant or of a display is a neutral reference characterized by a chromaticity; for example, the white point of an sRGB display is an x, y chromaticity of [0.3127, 0.3290]. All other chromaticities may be defined in relation to this reference using polar coordinates. The hue is the angular component, and the purity is the radial component, normalized by the maximum radius for that hue.
