This paper presented a comparative study of human skin color detection HSV and YCbCr color space. Skin color detection is the process of separation between skin and non-skin pixels. It is difficult to develop uniform method for the segmentation or detection of human skin detection because the color tone of human skin is drastically varied for people from one region to another. Literature survey shows that there is a variety of color space is applied for the skin color detection. RGB color space is not preferred for color based detection and color analysis because of mixing of color (chrominance) and intensity (luminance) information and its non uniform characteristics. Luminance and Hue based approaches discriminate color and intensity information even under uneven illumination conditions. Experimental result shows the efficiency of YCbCr color space for the segmentation and detection of skin color in color images.
