(1) (n ) The color of a scene independent of its luminance (2) (n ) The portion of a composite signal that carries color information
The color information in a television picture Seen on a waveform monitor as the color subcarrier riding on top of the luminance signal Low chroma means that the color is too intense and has a tendency to bleed into surrounding areas, contaminating nearby colors or in severe cases, causing video breakup
Information describing hue, or the color components orthogonal to the brightness YUV and YIQ are chrominance/luminance color models
A colour term defining the hue and saturation of a colour Does not refer to brightness
The colour information of a television picture It is also used to refer to the modulated colour component of a PAL, SECAM or NTSC television signal
the color component of a composite signal or S-Video signal Chrominance also refers to the color component of any image, as opposed to its grayscale value or luminance
{i} composition of a color in a color signal (as opposed to the composition of brightness or illumination); difference between a color and a reference color that has an equal brightness level (Optics)
Signal that describes hue and saturation, used in measuring the difference between two colors of equal brightness
The NTSC or PAL video signal contains two pieces that make up what you see on the screen: the black and white (luminance) part, and the color part Chrominance is the color part--a k a chroma
