  2. Lightness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightness

    Lightness is a visual perception of the luminance of an object. It is often judged relative to a similarly lit object. It is often judged relative to a similarly lit object. In colorimetry and color appearance models , lightness is a prediction of how an illuminated color will appear to a standard observer.

  3. HSL and HSV - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV

    Furthermore, hue is defined piecewise, in 60° chunks, where the relationship of lightness, value, and chroma to R, G, and B depends on the hue chunk in question. This definition introduces discontinuities, corners which can plainly be seen in horizontal slices of HSL or HSV. [41]

    HSL (hue, saturation, lightness or luminance), also known as HSI (hue, saturation, intensity) or HSD (hue, saturation, darkness), is quite similar to HSV, with "lightness" replacing "brightness". The difference is that a perfectly light color in HSL is pure white; but a perfectly bright color in HSV is analogous to shining a white light on a ...

  5. Brightness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brightness

    This is a different perception than lightness, which is how light something appears compared to a similarly lit white object. [2] The adjective bright derives from an Old English beorht with the same meaning via metathesis giving Middle English briht.

    A tea light-type candle, imaged with a luminance camera; false colors indicate luminance levels per the bar on the right (cd/m 2). Luminance is a photometric measure of the luminous intensity per unit area of light travelling in a given direction. [1]

    Lightheadedness is a common and typically unpleasant sensation of dizziness [1] or a feeling that one may faint.The sensation of lightheadedness can be short-lived, prolonged, or, rarely, recurring.

  9. Tint, shade and tone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tint,_shade_and_tone

    In color theory, a tint is a mixture of a color with white, which increases lightness, while a shade is a mixture with black, which increases darkness. Both processes affect the resulting color mixture's relative saturation. A tone is produced either by mixing a color with gray, or by both tinting and shading. [1]
