HSV Channel
The HSV channel module converts the image into a hue, saturation,
and value/lightness components instead of the RGB representation. The Hue is the
color of the image, the Saturation is the pureness of the hue color, and the
value is the strength of the hue. By selecting the appropriate radio button
you can see the appropriate channel without the other two components similar to
the RGB and YUV channel module. Note this module is very similar to the HLS module with the only
difference being the luminance channel.
Interface
Instructions
1. Select the appropriate channel
- Multi Channel Hue - image hue approximated as maximum RGB channels
- Single Channel Hue - image hue represented as grayscale
- Saturation - image saturation represented as grayscale amount
- Value - essentially the grayscale representation of the image
- HSV as RGB - converts from RGB to HSV by placing the HSV components placed into each of the RGB channels
- RGB as HSV - converts from HSV to RGB by assuming each of the RGB channels contains the HSV channels
