Fig. 1. HSL (a–d) and HSV (e–h). Above (a, e): cut-away 3D models of each. Below: two-dimensional plots showing two of a model's three parameters at once, holding the other constant: cylindrical shells (b, f) of constant saturation, in this case the outside surface of each cylinder; horizontal cross-sections (c, g) of constant HSL lightness or HSV value, in this case the slices halfway ...
The HSV, or HSB, model describes colors in terms of hue, saturation, and value (brightness). Note that the range of values for each attribute is arbitrarily defined by various tools or standards. Be sure to determine the value ranges before attempting to interpret a value.
HSV and HSL are transformations of Cartesian RGB primaries (usually sRGB), and their components and colorimetry are relative to the colorspace from which they are derived. HSV (hue, saturation, value), also known as HSB (hue, saturation, brightness), is often used by artists because it is often more natural to think about a color in terms of ...
Joblove and Greenberg's paper was the first describing the HSL model, which it compares to HSV. Kuehni, Rolf G. (2003). Color Space and Its Divisions: Color Order from Antiquity to the present. New York: Wiley. ISBN 978-0-471-32670-0. This book only briefly mentions HSL and HSV, but is a comprehensive description of color order systems through ...
HSV is a transformation of an RGB color space, and its components and colorimetry are relative to the RGB color space from which it was derived. HSL ( h ue, s aturation, l ightness/ l uminance), also known as HLS or HSI (hue, saturation, i ntensity) is quite similar to HSV , with "lightness" replacing "brightness".
English: HSL and HSV are two cylindrical representations of the RGB gamut, created in the mid-1970s and used mostly in image editing and computer graphics. Shown are cut-away 3d models of HSL and HSV on top, along with three 2D plots (for each model) where one parameter is held constant and the other two are varied.
Saturation is also one of three coordinates in the HSL and HSV color spaces. However, in the HSL color space saturation exists independently of lightness. That is, both a very light color and a very dark color can be heavily saturated in HSL; whereas in the previous definitions—as well as in the HSV color space—colors approaching white all ...
I believe it's incorrect to say that HSL and HSV are "representations" of RGB. HSL, HSV, and RGB are each color models or gamuts in their own right. They are all alternatives to one another. I recommend that the reference to RGB and the misleading fact that both HSL and HSV were invented in the 1970s be removed completely from the leading ...
