Understanding YUV to BGR color spaces conversion
I read a BGR image:
bgr=cv2.imread('bgr.png')
I convert it to YUV color space:
yuv=cv2.cvtColor(bgr,cv2.COLOR_BGR2YUV)
Now I set U
and V
values of yuv
image to 0:
for i in range(yuv.shape[0]):
for j in range(yuv.shape[1]):
yuv[i,j,1]=0
yuv[i,j,2]=0
Now I convert yuv
to BGR and display it:
BGR=cv2.cvtColor(yuv,cv2.COLOR_YUV2BGR)
cv2.imshow('BGR',BGR)
The problem is that BGR is displayed totally green (Blue and Red channels are always 0 on all the pixels)
Does this mean that Y
in YUV
color space is saved as G
in BGR
when we convert an image from YUV
to BGR
colorspaces ?
