As dp is a physical unit it has an absolute value which can be measured in traditional units, e.g. for Android devices 1 dp equals 1/160 of inch or 0.15875 mm. While traditional pixels only refer to the display of information, device-independent pixels may also be used to measure user input such as input on a touch screen device.
But when the pixel counts are referred to as "resolution", the convention is to describe the pixel resolution with the set of two positive integer numbers, where the first number is the number of pixel columns (width) and the second is the number of pixel rows (height), for example as 7680 × 6876.
Since most digital hardware devices use dots or pixels, the size of the media (in inches) and the number of pixels (or dots) are directly related by the 'pixels per inch'. The following formula gives the number of pixels, horizontally or vertically, given the physical size of a format and the pixels per inch of the output:
(* The pixel number of 6,000x4,000 ist the number of "effective pixels". The sensor usually has a few extra rows of pixels on all four sides, which explains the sensor resolution of 24.3 MPixels often stated, but no information about the exact image size available.) 6,016 4,000 24,064,000 24.1 Nikon D3300 Canon M50: 6,048 4,032 24,385,536 24.4
The term display resolution is usually used to mean pixel dimensions, the maximum number of pixels in each dimension (e.g. 1920 × 1080), which does not tell anything about the pixel density of the display on which the image is actually formed: resolution properly refers to the pixel density, the number of pixels per unit distance or area, not ...
A megapixel (MP) is a million pixels; the term is used not only for the number of pixels in an image but also to express the number of image sensor elements of digital cameras or the number of display elements of digital displays. For example, a camera that makes a 2048 × 1536 pixel image (3,145,728 finished image pixels) typically uses a few ...
[1] [2] In the case of an RGB color display, the derived unit of pixel pitch is a measure of the size of a triad plus the distance between triads. Dot pitch may be measured in linear units (with smaller numbers meaning higher resolution), usually millimeters (mm), or as a rate, for example, dots per inch (with a larger number meaning higher ...
The picture this screenshot is taken from is 1194 pixels wide and 1174 pixels tall. Image sizes on Wikipedia can be determined by doing the following: Go to the image page by clicking on the image thumbnail; Under the image there should be a set of numbers in the form "NNNNxMMMM." This is the size of the image in pixels.
