Guess the colour

Guess the colour is an interactive experiment in Colour Models, a free simulation from StudyFi Lab that runs right in your browser.

Mix the target colour in any model you like. The match is judged by ΔE₀₀ (CIEDE2000), a colour difference built so that equal numbers look equally different to the eye: below 1 almost nobody sees a difference, around 3 it shows side by side. After each check you get a hint about what to change first.

Try this: Try the same target once with RGB and once with HSV – which model gets you there in fewer moves?
