About Grayscale Conversion

Our grayscale converter uses the standard luminance formula to create natural-looking black and white images:

Gray = 0.299 × Red + 0.587 × Green + 0.114 × Blue

This formula takes into account the human eye's different sensitivity to red, green, and blue light, resulting in grayscale images that preserve the perceived brightness of the original.
