About RGB and XYZ D65

RGB sets red, green and blue from 0 to 255. It describes how a screen mixes light and is written as rgb(255 87 51) in modern CSS.

CIE XYZ is the reference space every other space is defined from. Converters use it as the common ground between formats.

How the conversion works

We read the RGB value, convert it to CIE XYZ with the matrices from the CSS Color 4 specification and then into XYZ D65. Values outside the target gamut are mapped by the CSS Color 4 algorithm, which keeps lightness and hue and reduces chroma.
