A color space that is perceptually uniform, linear in iso-hue directions, can uniformly encode high dynamic range and wide gamut signals, and is computationally efficient, has been long desired. The available color spaces do not meet all these requirements satisfactorily and comprehensively. Performance of a recently proposed uniform and hue linear color space, Jzazbz, is compared with the state of the art color spaces and results are presented. This study suggests a single uniform color space for perceptual image processing, wherever desired, in different applications.
