An interactive diagram to explore the \(YC_bC_r\) color model. There are three sliders that allow the reader to vary the quantities \(Y\text{,}\) \(C_b\text{,}\) and \(C_r\text{.}\) The resulting color is then displayed.

Instructions.

The diagram below enables you to create colors using various amounts of luminance \(Y\text{,}\) blue chrominance \(C_b\text{,}\) and red chrominance \(C_r\text{.}\) The luminance slider moves between 0 and 255 while the chrominance sliders move between -127.5 and 127.5.
