JP2 stands for JPEG 2000, developed by the Joint Photographic Experts Group. It's a file format designed for high-quality image compression, supporting both lossy and lossless compression. Introduced in the year 2000, JP2 offers superior image quality and efficient storage over the standard JPEG format, making it suitable for medical imaging, digital cinema, and archives requiring high-fidelity imagery. Its advanced features include better handling of color, metadata, and progressive decoding, ensuring it remains a vital tool in professional and technical applications.
The SIXEL, or "six pixels", is a bitmap graphics format created by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) for their terminals and printers. Initially designed for DEC dot matrix printers like the LA50, it enabled the efficient transfer of bitmap graphics using a series of ASCII characters. Each character represents a 6-pixel high row, making it suitable for 7-bit serial communication. This format was later adapted for modern terminal emulators, extending its utility beyond its original scope.
