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 PTIF (Pyramid Encoded TIFF) file format, developed by Image Magick, is a specialized variant of the TIFF image format designed to store multiple resolutions of the same image within a single file. This enables efficient zooming and panning in applications without losing image quality. PTIF files are commonly used in geospatial imaging, remote sensing, and medical imaging due to their ability to handle large, high-resolution images efficiently. The format was introduced to address the need for handling large image datasets more effectively in these fields.
