请注意，在谷歌闭包库中有一个算法，该算法引用了w3c推荐:http://www.w3.org/TR/AERT#color-contrast。但是，在这个API中，您提供了一个建议颜色列表作为起点。

objective-c的实现

+ (UIColor*) getContrastColor:(UIColor*) color {
    CGFloat red, green, blue, alpha;
    [color getRed:&red green:&green blue:&blue alpha:&alpha];
    double a = ( 0.299 * red + 0.587 * green + 0.114 * blue);
    return (a > 0.5) ? [[UIColor alloc]initWithRed:0 green:0 blue:0 alpha:1] : [[UIColor alloc]initWithRed:255 green:255 blue:255 alpha:1];
}

我有同样的问题，但我必须在PHP开发它。我用了@Garek的解决方案，我也用了这个答案: 转换十六进制颜色到RGB值在PHP转换十六进制颜色代码到RGB。

所以我要分享它。

我想在给定的背景颜色下使用这个函数，但不总是从“#”开始。

//So it can be used like this way:
$color = calculateColor('#804040');
echo $color;

//or even this way:
$color = calculateColor('D79C44');
echo '<br/>'.$color;

function calculateColor($bgColor){
    //ensure that the color code will not have # in the beginning
    $bgColor = str_replace('#','',$bgColor);
    //now just add it
    $hex = '#'.$bgColor;
    list($r, $g, $b) = sscanf($hex, "#%02x%02x%02x");
    $color = 1 - ( 0.299 * $r + 0.587 * $g + 0.114 * $b)/255;

    if ($color < 0.5)
        $color = '#000000'; // bright colors - black font
    else
        $color = '#ffffff'; // dark colors - white font

    return $color;
}

谢谢@Gacek。下面是一个Android版本:

@ColorInt
public static int getContrastColor(@ColorInt int color) {
    // Counting the perceptive luminance - human eye favors green color...
    double a = 1 - (0.299 * Color.red(color) + 0.587 * Color.green(color) + 0.114 * Color.blue(color)) / 255;

    int d;
    if (a < 0.5) {
        d = 0; // bright colors - black font
    } else {
        d = 255; // dark colors - white font
    }

    return Color.rgb(d, d, d);
}

还有一个改进的(更短的)版本:

@ColorInt
public static int getContrastColor(@ColorInt int color) {
    // Counting the perceptive luminance - human eye favors green color...
    double a = 1 - (0.299 * Color.red(color) + 0.587 * Color.green(color) + 0.114 * Color.blue(color)) / 255;
    return a < 0.5 ? Color.BLACK : Color.WHITE;
}
