Animated PNG is a file extension for animated raster graphics. Developed as an extension of the Portable Network Graphics (PNG) format, Animated PNG allows for animation while maintaining PNG's lossless compression and transparency features. Introduced by Mozilla in 2004, it initially garnered limited support but gained traction for its compatibility and efficiency. Animated PNG is ideal for web usage, offering animation without the substantial file size of GIFs, making it suitable for high-quality web animations and UI elements.
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.
