Convert SIXEL to MAT
Convert SIXEL images to MAT format, edit and optimize images online and free.
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.
The MAT file (short for MATrix) is a data file format used by MATLAB to store variables, functions, and arrays, including images. It was developed by MathWorks to facilitate data exchange and storage within the MATLAB environment. The format is widely used in scientific and engineering applications for its ability to preserve complex data structures and multidimensional arrays.
