Why do we convert from RGB to HSV

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HSL_and_HSV#Use_in_image_analysis :

Because the R, G, and B components of an object’s color in a digital image are all correlated with the amount of light hitting the object, and therefore with each other, image descriptions in terms of those components make object discrimination difficult. Descriptions in terms of hue/lightness/chroma or hue/lightness/saturation are often more relevant.

Also some good info here
