Module palette::cam16

Types for the CIE CAM16 color appearance model.

CIE CAM16 is a color appearance model that tries to predict the appearance of a color under certain viewing conditions, as specified via the Parameters type. The Cam16 type has descriptions for the CAM16 attributes. The Color appearance model page on Wikipedia has some history and background as well.

Converting Between XYZ and CAM16

The CIE CAM16 implementation in Palette has the Cam16 type and its partial variants on one side of the boundary, and Xyz on the other. Going between Xyz and Cam16 requires the viewing conditions to be specified as Parameters.

use palette::{
    Srgb, FromColor, IntoColor,
    cam16::{Cam16, Parameters},
};

// Customize these according to the viewing conditions:
let mut example_parameters = Parameters::default_static_wp(40.0);

// CAM16 from sRGB, or most other color spaces:
let rgb = Srgb::new(0.3f32, 0.8, 0.1);
let cam16_from_rgb = Cam16::from_xyz(rgb.into_color(), example_parameters);

// sRGB from CAM16, using lightness, chroma and hue by default:
let rgb_from_cam16 = Srgb::from_color(cam16_from_rgb.into_xyz(example_parameters));

For more control over the attributes to use when converting from CAM16, one of the partial CAM16 types can be used:

• Cam16Jch: lightness and chroma.
• Cam16Jmh: lightness and colorfulness.
• Cam16Jsh: lightness and saturation.
• Cam16Qch: brightness and chroma.
• Cam16Qmh: brightness and colorfulness.
• Cam16Qsh: brightness and saturation.

Generic traits and functions can make use of the IntoCam16Unclamped, FromCam16Unclamped, Cam16IntoUnclamped, and Cam16FromUnclamped traits. They are similar to the traits from the convert module and help abstracting away most of the implementation details.

The CAM16-UCS Color Space

CIE CAM16 specifies a visually uniform color space that can be used for color manipulation. It’s represented by the Cam16UcsJmh and Cam16UcsJab types, similar to Lch and Lab.

use palette::{
    Srgb, FromColor, IntoColor,
    cam16::{Cam16Jmh, Parameters, Cam16UcsJmh},
};

// Customize these according to the viewing conditions:
let mut example_parameters = Parameters::default_static_wp(40.0);

// CAM16-UCS from sRGB, or most other color spaces:
let rgb = Srgb::new(0.3f32, 0.8, 0.1);
let cam16 = Cam16Jmh::from_xyz(rgb.into_color(), example_parameters);
let mut ucs_from_rgb = Cam16UcsJmh::from_color(cam16);

// Shift the hue by 120 degrees in CAM16-UCS:
ucs_from_rgb.hue += 120.0;

// Convert back to sRGB under the same viewing conditions:
let rgb = Srgb::from_color(Cam16Jmh::from_color(ucs_from_rgb).into_xyz(example_parameters));
