RGB and HSV color model. Left: the RGB color space is depicted as a cube. In the top left, there is an RGB cube showing black in the bottom back corner and demonstrating the addition of RGB values. In the bottom left, another RGB cube is shown with white in the top, front corner, illustrating the subtraction of RGB values. Right: the HSV color space is represented as an inverted cone with six edges. The middle arrow indicates the intensity value, increasing in the direction of the arrow. Saturation is denoted by the lower arrow pointing to the right, with saturation increasing in the direction of the arrow. The color is described by a circle (own illustration).

Context 1
... RGB color space (see Figure 6, left), one of the most well-known, is depicted as a unit cube in a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system. It is based on the primary colors red, green, and blue. ...
Context 2
... prominent color model is the HSV color model (see Figure 6, right), where H represents hue, S represents saturation, and V represents intensity, each ranging from 0 to 1. This model is often visualized as an inverted hexagonal cone, where (gH, 0, 0) represents black and (gH, 255, 0) represents white [24]. ...
