Description
Another important color space is the CIE-LAB color space. This color space is somewhat unique in that it tries to encapsulate uniform color perception. That is, if two colors look similar, they will be (more-or-less) the same distance apart, regardless of there chromatics or hue. Compare this with the standard XYZ or even RGB color spaces, where similar greens can be spaced much further apart than similar blues, for instance. You may already be familiar with this color space if you use some of the advanced photo editing features in Photoshop. Once again, the animation plots the A and B channels on the X and Y axis, while the Luminance varies with time.
