Chroma calculator

Chroma describes how vivid, intense, or colorful a color appears compared to a neutral gray or white under the same lighting conditions. In color science, the CIE often refers to this perceptual quality as colorfulness. Unlike simple RGB saturation, chroma is tied to human visual perception, meaning it is not just a physical property of the color itself but also depends on how we see it in context. Because of this, chroma is both subjective and influenced by environmental factors such as illumination, surrounding colors, and visual adaptation.
