Member Functions:


Interface Category:

API.

Inherits From:

TColor

Inherited By:

None.

Purpose:

TYuvColor, derived from TColor, defines the Yuv color space, which is the standard for European television (PAL). The European system provides more bandwidth for the chromaticity signals than does the American NTSC standard (which defines the YIQ color model). The weighting coefficients used for the Y signal are the same as in the YIQ color model. The u and v components are given by the following: u =0.493( Blue -Y) v =0.877( Red -Y) The class provides arithmetic operators that operate on two colors.

Instantiation:

Allocate on the heap or the stack.

Deriving Classes:

Derive new color models from TColor.

Concurrency:

Multithread safe.

Resource Use:

No special requirements.
