Step-by-step math

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

  1. 1. sRGB → linear

    R: 221/255 = 0.86667 → 0.723055  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
    G: 214/255 = 0.83922 → 0.672443  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
    B: 254/255 = 0.99608 → 0.991102  (((x + 0.055) / 1.055)^2.4)
  2. 2. linear sRGB → LMS

    l = 0.4122·R + 0.5363·G + 0.0514·B = 0.709700
    m = 0.2119·R + 0.6807·G + 0.1074·B = 0.717391
    s = 0.0883·R + 0.2817·G + 0.6300·B = 0.877661
  3. 3. cube root

    l′ = ∛0.709700 = 0.891987
    m′ = ∛0.717391 = 0.895197
    s′ = ∛0.877661 = 0.957434
  4. 4. LMS′ → Oklab

    L = 0.2105·l′ + 0.7936·m′ − 0.0041·s′ = 0.89427
    a = 1.9780·l′ − 2.4286·m′ + 0.4506·s′ = 0.02169
    b = 0.0259·l′ + 0.7828·m′ − 0.8087·s′ = -0.05041
  5. 5. Oklab → OKLCH

    C = √(a² + b²) = 0.05488
    H = atan2(b, a) = 293.283°
    L = 0.89427
  6. 6. OKLCH

    oklch(0.89427 0.05488 293.283)
    rounded: oklch(0.894 0.055 293.3)
