Swift 4示例:

extension UIColor {

    var isLight: Bool {
        let components = cgColor.components

        let firstComponent = ((components?[0]) ?? 0) * 299
        let secondComponent = ((components?[1]) ?? 0) * 587
        let thirdComponent = ((components?[2]) ?? 0) * 114
        let brightness = (firstComponent + secondComponent + thirdComponent) / 1000

        return !(brightness < 0.6)
    }

}

更新-发现0.6是一个更好的查询测试平台

谢谢你写这篇文章。

对于可能感兴趣的人，这里有一个Delphi中的函数示例:

function GetContrastColor(ABGColor: TColor): TColor;
var
  ADouble: Double;
  R, G, B: Byte;
begin
  if ABGColor <= 0 then
  begin
    Result := clWhite;
    Exit; // *** EXIT RIGHT HERE ***
  end;

  if ABGColor = clWhite then
  begin
    Result := clBlack;
    Exit; // *** EXIT RIGHT HERE ***
  end;

  // Get RGB from Color
  R := GetRValue(ABGColor);
  G := GetGValue(ABGColor);
  B := GetBValue(ABGColor);

  // Counting the perceptive luminance - human eye favors green color...
  ADouble := 1 - (0.299 * R + 0.587 * G + 0.114 * B) / 255;

  if (ADouble < 0.5) then
    Result := clBlack  // bright colors - black font
  else
    Result := clWhite;  // dark colors - white font
end;

一个Android版本，捕捉alpha以及。

(感谢@thomas-vos)

/**
 * Returns a colour best suited to contrast with the input colour.

 * @param colour

 */
@ColorInt
public static int contrastingColour(@ColorInt int colour) {
    // XXX https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1855884/determine-font-color-based-on-background-color

    // Counting the perceptive luminance - human eye favors green color...
    double a = 1 - (0.299 * Color.red(colour) + 0.587 * Color.green(colour) + 0.114 * Color.blue(colour)) / 255;
    int alpha = Color.alpha(colour);

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

    return Color.argb(alpha, d, d, d);
}

作为Kotlin / Android扩展:

fun Int.getContrastColor(): Int {
    // Counting the perceptive luminance - human eye favors green color...
    val a = 1 - (0.299 * Color.red(this) + 0.587 * Color.green(this) + 0.114 * Color.blue(this)) / 255
    return if (a < 0.5) Color.BLACK else Color.WHITE
}

基于Gacek的回答，在用WAVE浏览器扩展分析了@WebSeed的例子后，我提出了以下版本，它根据对比度(在W3C的Web内容可访问性指南(WCAG) 2.1中定义)而不是亮度来选择黑色或白色文本。

这是代码(javascript):

// As defined in WCAG 2.1
var relativeLuminance = function (R8bit, G8bit, B8bit) {
  var RsRGB = R8bit / 255.0;
  var GsRGB = G8bit / 255.0;
  var BsRGB = B8bit / 255.0;

  var R = (RsRGB <= 0.03928) ? RsRGB / 12.92 : Math.pow((RsRGB + 0.055) / 1.055, 2.4);
  var G = (GsRGB <= 0.03928) ? GsRGB / 12.92 : Math.pow((GsRGB + 0.055) / 1.055, 2.4);
  var B = (BsRGB <= 0.03928) ? BsRGB / 12.92 : Math.pow((BsRGB + 0.055) / 1.055, 2.4);

  return 0.2126 * R + 0.7152 * G + 0.0722 * B;
};

var blackContrast = function(r, g, b) {
  var L = relativeLuminance(r, g, b);
  return (L + 0.05) / 0.05;
};

var whiteContrast = function(r, g, b) {
  var L = relativeLuminance(r, g, b);
  return 1.05 / (L + 0.05);
};

// If both options satisfy AAA criterion (at least 7:1 contrast), use preference
// else, use higher contrast (white breaks tie)
var chooseFGcolor = function(r, g, b, prefer = 'white') {
  var Cb = blackContrast(r, g, b);
  var Cw = whiteContrast(r, g, b);
  if(Cb >= 7.0 && Cw >= 7.0) return prefer;
  else return (Cb > Cw) ? 'black' : 'white';
};

在我的@WebSeed的代码依赖的分支中可以找到一个工作示例，它在WAVE中产生零低对比度错误。

颤振实现

Color contrastColor(Color color) {
  if (color == Colors.transparent || color.alpha < 50) {
    return Colors.black;
  }
  double luminance = (0.299 * color.red + 0.587 * color.green + 0.114 * color.blue) / 255;
  return luminance > 0.5 ? Colors.black : Colors.white;
}
