About saturation and colour models
- The concept of saturation is most comprehensible when connected to a particular colour model.
- Examples of colour models include:
- CMY colour model
- HSB colour model
- RGB colour model
- Spectral colour model
- In the HSB colour model, the term saturation (S) is used alongside hue (H) and brightness (B).
- Some colour models don’t use the term saturation at all.
- When changing from one colour model to another, it’s best to change terminology at the same time.
