Rgb Color Space

This makes 256 256 256 16777216 possible colors.

Rgb color space. The red green and blue use 8 bits each which have integer values from 0 to 255. Color ri gj bk. This coordinate plane yields a cube called the rgb color space.

Essentially any color in a linear rgb space can be built as a linear combination of the i j and k i e. That means that all the colors in that space are created by some combination of those three colors. Srgb and adobe rgb.

You probably see srgb the most. 1 2 a particular color space that employs rgb primaries for part of its specification is defined by the three chromaticities of the red green and blue additive primaries and can produce any chromaticity that is the 2d triangle defined by those primary colors ie. As a comparison the adobe wide gamut rgb color space encompasses 77 6 of the visible colors specified by the lab color space whilst the standard adobe rgb color space covers just 50 6.

This is illustrated in the interactive example below where all possible color mixes are represented within the bounds of the cube. The possibilities for mixing the three primary colors together can be represented as a three dimensional coordinate plane with the values for r red g green and b blue on each axis. Some implementations use 16 bits per component for 48 bits total resulting in the same gamut with a larger number of distinct colors.

Rgb color space or rgb color system constructs all the colors from the combination of the r ed g reen and b lue colors. There are two types of color spaces. Those related to each device and we then speak of icc profile and some invented by researchers so that they do not depend on a device and the best known are the srgb adobe rgb or prophoto in the world of photography and dci p3 or rec 709 in the world of video.

Rgb red green blue. Rgb is an additive color model that blends the primary colors of light. An rgb color space is any additive color space based on the rgb color model.
