Overview

The XYZ to HSV Converter is a professional utility designed to transform XYZ color space values into HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) or HSB (Hue, Saturation, Brightness) formats, enabling precise color manipulation for design and development workflows.

When to use

When you need to translate CIE XYZ color data into a more intuitive format for digital color picking.
When preparing color palettes for UI/UX design that requires HSB-based adjustments.
When standardizing color values across different software environments that prefer HSV/HSB notation.

How it works

1Input your XYZ color values into the text area, using either comma-separated values or standard xyz() notation.
2Select your preferred output format from the dropdown menu, such as standard HSV, HSB, or labeled string formats.
3Click the convert button to instantly generate the corresponding color values for your project.

Use cases

Converting color data from scientific or imaging software into web-ready HSV values.
Adjusting the brightness or saturation of a color while maintaining its hue in a design system.
Standardizing color inputs for CSS or graphic design software that utilizes HSB sliders.

Examples

1. Web Design Color Standardization

Frontend Developer

Background

A developer received color specifications in XYZ format from a design team but needs to implement them using HSB-based color pickers in a CSS framework.

Problem

Manually calculating the conversion for multiple brand colors is prone to error.

How to use

Paste the XYZ values into the input field and select 'labeled-hsb' as the output format.

format: labeled-hsb

Outcome

The tool provides clean, labeled HSB values ready for direct implementation in the project's style sheets.

2. Digital Illustration Workflow

Graphic Designer

Background

A designer is migrating assets from a color-calibrated imaging tool to a digital painting application that uses the HSB model.

Problem

The source software exports in XYZ, but the painting app requires simple comma-separated HSV values.

How to use

Input the XYZ coordinates and select the '0,100,100' output format.

format: values

FAQ

What is the difference between HSV and HSB?

They are essentially the same color model; 'Value' and 'Brightness' both refer to the same parameter representing the intensity of the color.

Can I convert multiple colors at once?

Yes, you can paste multiple XYZ values into the input area, with each color on a new line, to process them in a single batch.

What input formats are supported?

The tool accepts raw comma-separated values, 'xyz(x,y,z)' function syntax, and 'X: Y: Z:' labeled formats.

Is this tool suitable for print design?

This tool is primarily for digital color manipulation; print workflows typically require CMYK or Lab color spaces.

Are the output values accurate?

Yes, the tool uses standard mathematical conversions to map XYZ coordinates to the HSV color space.
