The Sun Raster file extension, also known as RAS, is a bitmap graphics file format developed by Sun Microsystems for use on their SunOS operating system. It supports black-and-white, grayscale, and color images with various pixel depths and includes simple Run-Length Encoding (RLE) compression. The format was widely used in UNIX-based systems and is supported by many imaging applications. The RAS format has largely been superseded by more modern formats but remains relevant for legacy systems and specific use cases.
The KERNEL file extension, associated with Morphology Kernel Image, stands for "Kernel Image File". It defines structuring elements for morphological operations like erosion, dilation, opening, and closing in image processing. These operations are crucial for tasks such as image segmentation, object detection, and noise removal. Originating in the 1960s with mathematical morphology, the KERNEL file encapsulates the shape and size of the structuring element, influencing the results of these operations.
