Brightness & colour models

About brightness & colour models
  • The term brightness is often used in association with a specific colour model.
  • Examples of colour models include:
    • HSB colour model
    • Spectral colour model
    • RGB colour model
    • CMYK colour model
  • The HSB colour model uses the term brightness alongside hue and saturation.
  • Some colour models don’t use the term brightness at all, so when we change from one colour model to another it’s best to change our terminology as well.
