Chapter 7 Glossary Adobe®RGB This is a definition of the practical RGB color space proposed by Adobe Systems in 1998. The color reproduction range (color gamut) is broader than sRGB, and is highly adaptable to such fields as printing etc. Color Space YUV and RGB, etc. are available. YUV expresses the color by using the luminance (Y), the color difference of Blue (U), and the color difference of Red (V). RGB does this by using the gradation of the 3 colors, Red (R), Green (G), and Blue (B).
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) HDMI is a digital interface standard, developed for consumer electrical appliance or AV device.
