HEX to HSV Converter

Type or paste a HEX color: 3, 6 or 8 digits, with or without the #. A pasted CSS line works too.

hsv(0, 100%, 100%)
HEX:#FF0000
HSV:hsv(0, 100%, 100%)

CSS Usage:

HSV is not a CSS color format, so the CSS below uses the HEX equivalent.

background-color: #FF0000;
color: #FF0000;
border: 1px solid #FF0000;

How to Convert HEX to HSV

HEX to HSV conversion transforms a hex color into Hue (0–360°), Saturation (0–100%), and Value/Brightness (0–100%). For example, #FF0000 becomes hsv(0, 100%, 100%). HSV (also called HSB) is the model shown in the color pickers of Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator and many other design tools. It makes it easy to pick vivid colors (high S and V) or pastel tones (low S). Values here are rounded to whole numbers, so converting them back can differ by a few steps per channel: #1E90FF gives hsv(210, 88%, 100%), and that turns back into #1F8FFF.
