ColorSpace


public abstract class ColorSpace
extends Object

java.lang.Object
   ↳ android.graphics.ColorSpace


A ColorSpace is used to identify a specific organization of colors. Each color space is characterized by a color model that defines how a color value is represented (for instance the RGB color model defines a color value as a triplet of numbers).

Each component of a color must fall within a valid range, specific to each color space, defined by getMinValue(int) and getMaxValue(int) This range is commonly \([0..1]\). While it is recommended to use values in the valid range, a color space always clamps input and output values when performing operations such as converting to a different color space.

Using color spaces

This implementation provides a pre-defined set of common color spaces described in the Named enum. To obtain an instance of one of the pre-defined color spaces, simply invoke get(android.graphics.ColorSpace.Named):

 ColorSpace sRgb = ColorSpace.get(ColorSpace.Named.SRGB);
 

The get(android.graphics.ColorSpace.Named) method always returns the same instance for a given name. Color spaces with an RGB color model can be safely cast to Rgb. Doing so gives you access to more APIs to query various properties of RGB color models: color gamut primaries, transfer functions, conversions to and from linear space, etc. Please refer to Rgb for more information.

The documentation of Named provides a detailed description of the various characteristics of each available color space.

Color space conversions

To allow conversion between color spaces, this implementation uses the CIE XYZ profile connection space (PCS). Color values can be converted to and from this PCS using toXyz(float[]) and fromXyz(float[]).

For color space with a non-RGB color model, the white point of the PCS must be the CIE standard illuminant D50. RGB color spaces use their native white point (D65 for sRGB for instance and must undergo chromatic adaptation as necessary.

Since the white point of the PCS is not defined for RGB color space, it is highly recommended to use the variants of the connect(android.graphics.ColorSpace, android.graphics.ColorSpace) method to perform conversions between color spaces. A color space can be manually adapted to a specific white point using adapt(android.graphics.ColorSpace, float[]). Please refer to the documentation of RGB color spaces for more information. Several common CIE standard illuminants are provided in this class as reference (see ILLUMINANT_D65 or ILLUMINANT_D50 for instance).

Here is an example of how to convert from a color space to another:

 // Convert from DCI-P3 to Rec.2020
 ColorSpace.Connector connector = ColorSpace.connect(
         ColorSpace.get(ColorSpace.Named.DCI_P3),
         ColorSpace.get(ColorSpace.Named.BT2020));

 float[] bt2020 = connector.transform(p3r, p3g, p3b);
 

You can easily convert to sRGB by omitting the second parameter:

 // Convert from DCI-P3 to sRGB
 ColorSpace.Connector connector = ColorSpace.connect(ColorSpace.get(ColorSpace.Named.DCI_P3));

 float[] sRGB = connector.transform(p3r, p3g, p3b);
 

Conversions also work between color spaces with different color models:

 // Convert from CIE L*a*b* (color model Lab) to Rec.709 (color model RGB)
 ColorSpace.Connector connector = ColorSpace.connect(
         ColorSpace.get(ColorSpace.Named.CIE_LAB),
         ColorSpace.get(ColorSpace.Named.BT709));
 

Color spaces and multi-threading

Color spaces and other related classes (Connector for instance) are immutable and stateless. They can be safely used from multiple concurrent threads.

Public static methods provided by this class, such as get(android.graphics.ColorSpace.Named) and connect(android.graphics.ColorSpace, android.graphics.ColorSpace), are also guaranteed to be thread-safe.

equals

Added in API level 26
public boolean equals (Object o)

Indicates whether some other object is "equal to" this one.

The equals method implements an equivalence relation on non-null object references:

  • It is reflexive: for any non-null reference value x, x.equals(x) should return true.
  • It is symmetric: for any non-null reference values x and y, x.equals(y) should return true if and only if y.equals(x) returns true.
  • It is transitive: for any non-null reference values x, y, and z, if x.equals(y) returns true and y.equals(z) returns true, then x.equals(z) should return true.
  • It is consistent: for any non-null reference values x and y, multiple invocations of x.equals(y) consistently return true or consistently return false, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the objects is modified.
  • For any non-null reference value x, x.equals(null) should return false.

An equivalence relation partitions the elements it operates on into equivalence classes; all the members of an equivalence class are equal to each other. Members of an equivalence class are substitutable for each other, at least for some purposes.

Parameters
o Object: the reference object with which to compare.

Returns
boolean true if this object is the same as the obj argument; false otherwise.

getModel

Added in API level 26
public ColorSpace.Model getModel ()

Return the color model of this color space.

Returns
ColorSpace.Model A non-null Model

getName

Added in API level 26
public String getName ()

Returns the name of this color space. The name is never null and contains always at least 1 character.

Color space names are recommended to be unique but are not guaranteed to be. There is no defined format but the name usually falls in one of the following categories:

  • Generic names used to identify color spaces in non-RGB color models. For instance: Generic L*a*b*.
  • Names tied to a particular specification. For instance: sRGB IEC61966-2.1 or SMPTE ST 2065-1:2012 ACES.
  • Ad-hoc names, often generated procedurally or by the user during a calibration workflow. These names often contain the make and model of the display.

Because the format of color space names is not defined, it is not recommended to programmatically identify a color space by its name alone. Names can be used as a first approximation.

It is however perfectly acceptable to display color space names to users in a UI, or in debuggers and logs. When displaying a color space name to the user, it is recommended to add extra information to avoid ambiguities: color model, a representation of the color space's gamut, white point, etc.

Returns
String A non-null String of length >= 1

hashCode

Added in API level 26
public int hashCode ()

Returns a hash code value for the object. This method is supported for the benefit of hash tables such as those provided by HashMap.

The general contract of hashCode is:

  • Whenever it is invoked on the same object more than once during an execution of a Java application, the hashCode method must consistently return the same integer, provided no information used in equals comparisons on the object is modified. This integer need not remain consistent from one execution of an application to another execution of the same application.
  • If two objects are equal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce the same integer result.
  • It is not required that if two objects are unequal according to the equals method, then calling the hashCode method on each of the two objects must produce distinct integer results. However, the programmer should be aware that producing distinct integer results for unequal objects may improve the performance of hash tables.

Returns
int a hash code value for this object.

isSrgb

Added in API level 26
public boolean isSrgb ()

Indicates whether this color space is the sRGB color space or equivalent to the sRGB color space.

A color space is considered sRGB if it meets all the following conditions:

  • Its color model is Model#RGB.
  • Its primaries are within 1e-3 of the true sRGB primaries.
  • Its white point is within 1e-3 of the CIE standard illuminant D65.
  • Its opto-electronic transfer function is not linear.
  • Its electro-optical transfer function is not linear.
  • Its transfer functions yield values within 1e-3 of Named#SRGB.
  • Its range is \([0..1]\).

This method always returns true for Named#SRGB.

Returns
boolean True if this color space is the sRGB color space (or a close approximation), false otherwise

isWideGamut

Added in API level 26
public abstract boolean isWideGamut ()

Returns whether this color space is a wide-gamut color space. An RGB color space is wide-gamut if its gamut entirely contains the sRGB gamut and if the area of its gamut is 90% of greater than the area of the NTSC gamut.

Returns
boolean True if this color space is a wide-gamut color space, false otherwise

public static ColorSpace match (float[] toXYZD50, 
                ColorSpace.Rgb.TransferParameters function)

Returns
ColorSpace A non-null ColorSpace if a match is found, null otherwise

toString

Added in API level 26
public String toString ()

Returns a string representation of the object. This method returns a string equal to the value of:

 getName() + "(id=" + getId() + ", model=" + getModel() + ")"
 

For instance, the string representation of the sRGB color space is equal to the following value:

 sRGB IEC61966-2.1 (id=0, model=RGB)
 

Returns
String A string representation of the object This value cannot be null.

toXyz

public float[] toXyz (float r, 
                float g, 
                float b)

Converts a color value from this color space's model to tristimulus CIE XYZ values. If the color model of this color space is not RGB, it is assumed that the target CIE XYZ space uses a D50 standard illuminant.
