About
Detailed technical specifications for 822 named colours are provided in this resource, designed to bridge the gap between visual art and digital processing. It serves as a dictionary for colour values, translating names like "Absolute Zero" into precise computational formats including Hexadecimal, RGB (Red, Green, Blue), HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness), and HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value). This collection is essential for converting human-readable colour names into machine-readable codes for software development, graphic design, and computer vision analysis.
Columns
- Name: The descriptive identifier for the colour (e.g., Absolute Zero).
- Hex: The 6-digit hexadecimal code representing the colour (e.g., #0048BA).
- Red: The intensity of the red component in the RGB model.
- Green: The intensity of the green component in the RGB model.
- Blue: The intensity of the blue component in the RGB model.
- Hue: The degree of rotation on the colour wheel (shared by HSL and HSV models).
- SaturationHSL: The percentage of saturation within the HSL (Hue, Saturation, Lightness) model.
- LightHSL: The percentage of lightness within the HSL model.
- SaturationHSV: The percentage of saturation within the HSV (Hue, Saturation, Value) model.
- LightHSV: The percentage of value/brightness within the HSV model.
