Step-by-step math

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

  1. 1. sRGB → linear

    R: 211/255 = 0.82745 → 0.651406  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
    G: 211/255 = 0.82745 → 0.651406  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
    B: 211/255 = 0.82745 → 0.651406  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
  2. 2. linear sRGB → LMS

    l = 0.4122·R + 0.5363·G + 0.0514·B = 0.651406
    m = 0.2119·R + 0.6807·G + 0.1074·B = 0.651406
    s = 0.0883·R + 0.2817·G + 0.6300·B = 0.651406
  3. 3. cube root

    l′ = ∛0.651406 = 0.866863
    m′ = ∛0.651406 = 0.866863
    s′ = ∛0.651406 = 0.866863
  4. 4. LMS′ → Oklab

    L = 0.2105·l′ + 0.7936·m′ − 0.0041·s′ = 0.86686
    a = 1.9780·l′ − 2.4286·m′ + 0.4506·s′ = 0.00000
    b = 0.0259·l′ + 0.7828·m′ − 0.8087·s′ = 0.00000
  5. 5. Oklab → OKLCH

    C = √(a² + b²) = 0.00000
    H: a and b are ~0, so the hue is undefined (written as 0)
    L = 0.86686
  6. 6. OKLCH

    oklch(0.86686 0.00000 0.000)
    rounded: oklch(0.867 0.000 0.0)
