In this section, we are going to firstly explore different color spaces, which are very important in image analysis for self-driving cars. We will explore the following:
- RGB color space
- HSV color space
The red green blue (RGB) color space describes colors in terms of red, green, and blue, whereas the hue saturation value (HSV) describes colors in terms of hue, saturation, and value.
The HSV color space is preferable over RGB color space when performing image analytics because it describes colors in a way that is closer to our own perception of color, accounting for vibrancy and brightness rather than simply a combination of primary colors.
In the next section, we will learn about the RGB color space.
