Syntax

rgb = hsv2rgb(hsv)

Converts an m-by-3 colormap or an image of size m-by-n-by-3 from HSV to RGB.

Description

Hue is measured as a fraction of the color wheel: 0 is red, 1/3 is green, 2/3 is blue and 1 wraps back to red. Saturation 0 gives a gray and value sets the brightness.

Each row of a matrix is one color. The inverse conversion is rgb2hsv.

Input arguments

hsv: Matrix or image whose last dimension holds hue, saturation and value, each between 0 and 1.

Output arguments

rgb: Array of the same size with red, green and blue values between 0 and 1.

Example

Red and cyan from hues

hsv2rgb([0 1 1; 0.5 1 1; 0 0 0.5])

Output

ans = 3×3

    1.0000         0         0
         0    1.0000    1.0000
    0.5000    0.5000    0.5000
