HSL Extractor

World's Simplest JPG Tool

This is a simple browser-based utility that extracts HSL color channels from Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPG/JPEG) pictures. As soon as you paste a JPG/JPEG picture in the input area, the utility will extract its hue, saturation, and light channels. You can extract one or more channels at the same time and convert each individual channel to grayscale if necessary. Created by mad scientists from team Browserling.

Tool Options

Select HSL Channels

Extract "Hue" channel from a JPG (Hue is the color itself).
Extract "Saturation" from a JPG (Saturation is amount of color.)
Extract "Light" from a JPG. (Light the amount of white light.)

Grayscale HSL

Show the extracted channels as grayscale intensity.

What Is an HSL Extractor?

With this online program, you can extract channels of the HSL color model from JPG photos. HSL is a model in which a color is defined by three parameters: hue (H), saturation (S), and lightness (L). The HSL model is most commonly used in color pickers and applications where color is a first-class object because it allows you to specify color characteristics independently of each other that are more natural to humans. For example, the HSL model can easily brighten, darken, saturate, or desaturate a picked color. The algorithm of this tool splits the JPG picture into separate components of the HSL model and draws them as a new output image. Depending on the selected options, you can get only the hue channel in the output, or only the saturation channel, or only the lightness channel. You can choose multiple channels to extract. Additionally, you can turn the grayscale conversion option on. When it's turned on, the channels will be drawn using only gray tones, and they represent the absolute amount of hue, saturation, or lightness in each channel. Jpgabulous!

Display the Hue Channel

In this example, we extract the hue channel from a JPEG picture of a relaxed cat. The hue component specifies the exact color that is used in the picture, i.e. it is red, blue, yellow, green, and all other colors. This channel doesn't show the intensity of the color and doesn't darken or lighten the pixels. As the JPEG picture is compressed and has artifacts, this channel is useful for detecting fake pictures as all artifacts and modifications will instantly stand out. (Source: Pexels.)

Extract "Hue" channel from a JPG (Hue is the color itself).
Extract "Saturation" from a JPG (Saturation is amount of color.)
Extract "Light" from a JPG. (Light the amount of white light.)
Show the extracted channels as grayscale intensity.

Extract All Three HSL Components

In this example, we're working with an artistic JPG photo composition of various red fruit and we extract all three components of the HSL model at once. In addition to the hue value, we also display the saturation channel (gray regions indicate minimal or no color intensity and red regions indicate maximal color intensity), and the light channel (black color means there's no light and white color means there's a lot of light).

Convert HSL to Grayscale

In this example, we activate an option that converts HSL to grayscale. This option displays each of the channels in gray tones and it's useful when you need to do a relative comparison of hue, saturation, and light intensities without being distracted by the color information. (Source: Pexels.)
