OpenCV: Color-spaces and splitting channels

Conversion between color-spaces

Our goal here is to visualize each of the three channels of these color-spaces: RGB, HSV, YCrCb and Lab. In general, none of them are absolute color-spaces and the last three (HSV, YCrCb and Lab) are ways of encoding RGB information. Our images will be read in BGR (Blue-Green-Red), because of OpenCV defaults. For each of these color-spaces there is a mapping…
