Step-by-step math

Every number below is computed from the input, nothing is looked up.

  1. 1. sRGB → linear

    R: 0/255 = 0.00000 → 0.000000  (÷ 12.92)
    G: 89/255 = 0.34902 → 0.099899  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
    B: 138/255 = 0.54118 → 0.254152  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
  2. 2. linear sRGB → LMS

    l = 0.4122·R + 0.5363·G + 0.0514·B = 0.066654
    m = 0.2119·R + 0.6807·G + 0.1074·B = 0.095296
    s = 0.0883·R + 0.2817·G + 0.6300·B = 0.188254
  3. 3. cube root

    l′ = ∛0.066654 = 0.405455
    m′ = ∛0.095296 = 0.456764
    s′ = ∛0.188254 = 0.573123
  4. 4. LMS′ → Oklab

    L = 0.2105·l′ + 0.7936·m′ − 0.0041·s′ = 0.44549
    a = 1.9780·l′ − 2.4286·m′ + 0.4506·s′ = -0.04906
    b = 0.0259·l′ + 0.7828·m′ − 0.8087·s′ = -0.09543
  5. 5. Oklab → OKLCH

    C = √(a² + b²) = 0.10730
    H = atan2(b, a) = 242.792°
    L = 0.44549
  6. 6. OKLCH

    oklch(0.44549 0.10730 242.792)
    rounded: oklch(0.445 0.107 242.8)
