    8×8×4. 3 bits of R and G, 2 bits of B, the correct value can be computed from a color without using multiplication. Used, among others, in the MSX2 system series of computers in the early to mid 1990s. a 6×7×6 color cube, leaving 4 colors for a programmable palette or grays. a 6×8×5 cube, leaving 16 colors for a programmable palette or grays.

  4. Image file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_format

    The PNG file format supports 8-bit (256 colors) paletted images (with optional transparency for all palette colors) and 24-bit truecolor (16 million colors) or 48-bit truecolor with and without alpha channel – while GIF supports only 8-bit palettes with a single transparent color. Compared to JPEG, PNG excels when the image has large ...

    Transparency and translucency. Dichroic filters are created using optically transparent materials. In the field of optics, transparency (also called pellucidity or diaphaneity) is the physical property of allowing light to pass through the material without appreciable scattering of light.

    Making an image that was incorrectly saved as JPEG fit for saving as PNG. Suppose you have a map for an island that was inadvertently saved as JPEG. Looks OK, if a bit fuzzy. 1. In your bitmap graphics editor, set your fuzzy selection ("magic wand") tool so that it only will select pixels of exactly the same color. (Here: Threshold = 0) 2.

  8. Indexed color - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indexed_color

    A 2-bit indexed color image. The color of each pixel is represented by a number; each number (the index) corresponds to a color in the color table (the palette).. In computing, indexed color is a technique to manage digital images' colors in a limited fashion, in order to save computer memory and file storage, while speeding up display refresh and file transfers.

    The CIELAB color space, also referred to as L*a*b*, is a color space defined by the International Commission on Illumination (abbreviated CIE) in 1976. [a] It expresses color as three values: L* for perceptual lightness and a* and b* for the four unique colors of human vision: red, green, blue and yellow. CIELAB was intended as a perceptually ...
