  2. Binary image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_image

    A binary image is a digital image that consists of pixels that can have one of exactly two colors, usually black and white. Each pixel is stored as a single bit — i.e. either a 0 or 1. A binary image can be stored in memory as a bitmap : a packed array of bits.

  3. Digital image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_image

    A digital image is an image composed of picture elements, also known as pixels, each with finite, discrete quantities of numeric representation for its intensity or gray level that is an output from its two-dimensional functions fed as input by its spatial coordinates denoted with x, y on the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. [1]

  4. Binary code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_code

    The modern binary number system, the basis for binary code, is an invention by Gottfried Leibniz in 1689 and appears in his article Explication de l'Arithmétique Binaire (English: Explanation of the Binary Arithmetic) which uses only the characters 1 and 0, and some remarks on its usefulness. Leibniz's system uses 0 and 1, like the modern ...

  5. Digitization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digitization

    The term digitization is often used when diverse forms of information, such as an object, text, sound, image, or voice, are converted into a single binary code.The core of the process is the compromise between the capturing device and the player device so that the rendered result represents the original source with the most possible fidelity, and the advantage of digitization is the speed and ...

  6. Computer number format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_number_format

    Similar binary floating-point formats can be defined for computers. There is a number of such schemes, the most popular has been defined by Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE). The IEEE 754-2008 standard specification defines a 64 bit floating-point format with: an 11-bit binary exponent, using "excess-1023" format.

  7. Digital data - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_data

    Digital clock.The time shown by the digits on the face at any instant is digital data. The actual precise time is analog data. [1] Digital data, in information theory and information systems, is information represented as a string of discrete symbols, each of which can take on one of only a finite number of values from some alphabet, such as letters or digits.

  8. Image file format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_format

    WebP is an open image format released in 2010 that uses both lossless and lossy compression. It was designed by Google to reduce image file size to speed up web page loading: its principal purpose is to supersede JPEG as the primary format for photographs on the web. WebP is based on VP8's intra-frame coding and uses a container based on RIFF.

  9. Bitmap - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitmap

    A GIF is an example of a graphics image file that uses a bitmap. [ 2 ] As a noun, the term "bitmap" is very often used to refer to a particular bitmapping application: the pix-map , which refers to a map of pixels , where each pixel may store more than two colors, thus using more than one bit per pixel.
