以下是我用Java编写的Android解决方案:

// Put this method in whichever class you deem appropriate
// static or non-static, up to you.
public static int getContrastColor(int colorIntValue) {
    int red = Color.red(colorIntValue);
    int green = Color.green(colorIntValue);
    int blue = Color.blue(colorIntValue);
    double lum = (((0.299 * red) + ((0.587 * green) + (0.114 * blue))));
    return lum > 186 ? 0xFF000000 : 0xFFFFFFFF;
}

// Usage
// If Color is represented as HEX code:
String colorHex = "#484588";
int color = Color.parseColor(colorHex);

// Or if color is Integer:
int color = 0xFF484588;

// Get White (0xFFFFFFFF) or Black (0xFF000000)
int contrastColor = WhateverClass.getContrastColor(color);

这是Mark Ransom的答案的一个快速版本，作为UIColor的扩展

extension UIColor {

// Get the rgba components in CGFloat
var rgba: (red: CGFloat, green: CGFloat, blue: CGFloat, alpha: CGFloat) {
    var red: CGFloat = 0, green: CGFloat = 0, blue: CGFloat = 0, alpha: CGFloat = 0

    getRed(&red, green: &green, blue: &blue, alpha: &alpha)

    return (red, green, blue, alpha)
}

/// Return the better contrasting color, white or black
func contrastColor() -> UIColor {
    let rgbArray = [rgba.red, rgba.green, rgba.blue]

    let luminanceArray = rgbArray.map({ value -> (CGFloat) in
        if value < 0.03928 {
            return (value / 12.92)
        } else {
            return (pow( (value + 0.55) / 1.055, 2.4) )
        }
    })

    let luminance = 0.2126 * luminanceArray[0] +
        0.7152 * luminanceArray[1] +
        0.0722 * luminanceArray[2]

    return luminance > 0.179 ? UIColor.black : UIColor.white
} }

这只是一个示例，它将在单击元素时更改SVG复选标记的颜色。它将根据所单击元素的背景色将复选标记颜色设置为黑色或白色。

checkmarkColor: function(el) {
    var self = el;
    var contrast = function checkContrast(rgb) {
        // @TODO check for HEX value

        // Get RGB value between parenthesis, and remove any whitespace
        rgb = rgb.split(/\(([^)]+)\)/)[1].replace(/ /g, '');

        // map RGB values to variables
        var r = parseInt(rgb.split(',')[0], 10),
            g = parseInt(rgb.split(',')[1], 10),
            b = parseInt(rgb.split(',')[2], 10),
            a;

        // if RGBA, map alpha to variable (not currently in use)
        if (rgb.split(',')[3] !== null) {
            a = parseInt(rgb.split(',')[3], 10);
        }

        // calculate contrast of color (standard grayscale algorithmic formula)
        var contrast = (Math.round(r * 299) + Math.round(g * 587) + Math.round(b * 114)) / 1000;

        return (contrast >= 128) ? 'black' : 'white';
    };

    $('#steps .step.color .color-item .icon-ui-checkmark-shadow svg').css({
        'fill': contrast($(self).css('background-color'))
    });
}

onClickExtColor: function(evt) {
    var self = this;

    self.checkmarkColor(evt.currentTarget);
}

这是马克·兰森的答案的R版本，只使用R基。

hex_bw <- function(hex_code) {

  myrgb <- as.integer(col2rgb(hex_code))

  rgb_conv <- lapply(myrgb, function(x) {
    i <- x / 255
    if (i <= 0.03928) {
      i <- i / 12.92
    } else {
      i <- ((i + 0.055) / 1.055) ^ 2.4
    }
    return(i)
  })

 rgb_calc <- (0.2126*rgb_conv[[1]]) + (0.7152*rgb_conv[[2]]) + (0.0722*rgb_conv[[3]])

 if (rgb_calc > 0.179) return("#000000") else return("#ffffff")

}

> hex_bw("#8FBC8F")
[1] "#000000"
> hex_bw("#7fa5e3")
[1] "#000000"
> hex_bw("#0054de")

我在@SudoPlz提出的高级函数的基础上做了一个函数，它也考虑了浅色和深色:

function getTextColor (bgColor, lightColor = '#FFFFFF', darkColor = '#000000') {

  const getLuminance = function (hexColor) {
    var color = (hexColor.charAt(0) === '#') ? hexColor.substring(1, 7) : hexColor
    var r = parseInt(color.substring(0, 2), 16) // hexToR
    var g = parseInt(color.substring(2, 4), 16) // hexToG
    var b = parseInt(color.substring(4, 6), 16) // hexToB
    var uicolors = [r / 255, g / 255, b / 255]
    var c = uicolors.map(col => col <= 0.03928 ? col / 12.92 : ((col + 0.055) / 1.055) ** 2.4)

    return (0.2126 * c[0]) + (0.7152 * c[1]) + (0.0722 * c[2]);
  }

  var L = getLuminance(bgColor)
  var L1 = getLuminance(lightColor)
  var L2 = getLuminance(darkColor)

  return (L > Math.sqrt((L1 + 0.05) * (L2 + 0.05)) - 0.05) ? darkColor : lightColor;
}

因此，如果深色文本不是黑色而是栗色，灰色背景上的推荐文本颜色会变成白色:

getTextColor('#808080')
"#000000"

getTextColor('#808080', '#FFFFFF', '#800000')
"#FFFFFF"

下面是我基于Mark的惊人回答编写的Java Swing代码:

public static Color getColorBasedOnBackground(Color background, Color darkColor, Color lightColor) {
    // Calculate foreground color based on background (based on https://stackoverflow.com/a/3943023/)
    Color color;
    double[] cL = new double[3];
    double[] colorRGB = new double[] {background.getRed(), background.getGreen(), background.getBlue()};

    for (int i = 0; i < colorRGB.length; i++)
        cL[i] = (colorRGB[i] / 255.0 <= 0.03928) ? colorRGB[i] / 255.0 / 12.92 :
                Math.pow(((colorRGB[i] / 255.0 + 0.055) / 1.055), 2.4);

    double L = 0.2126 * cL[0] + 0.7152 * cL[1] + 0.0722 * cL[2];
    color = (L > Math.sqrt(1.05 * 0.05) - 0.05) ? darkColor : lightColor;

    return color;
}
