Convert SGI to AVS

The SGI file extension stands for Silicon Graphics Image, a raster graphics file format developed by Silicon Graphics Inc. primarily for their IRIS workstations. This format, originating in the late 1980s, supports uncompressed and RLE-compressed data with up to 48-bit color (16 bits per channel for RGB) and an alpha channel. SGI files are widely utilized in 3D graphics, visualization, and high-end imaging due to their ability to store high-quality images and intricate details, making them an essential asset in professional graphics and animation industries.

The AVS (Application Visualization System) X Image file format, developed by Stardent Computer for UNIX systems, is a high-end raster image format designed for scientific visualization and complex data representation. Its true-color images with an alpha channel provide superior image integrity and transparency capabilities, ensuring accurate and clear visual data. Despite the emergence of newer formats, AVS X Image's uncompressed nature maintains its relevance in professional IT applications.
