- Description
- The DIS file type is associated with the DKBTrace ray-tracer, a rendering software that was popular in the late 1980s and early 1990s for generating photorealistic images by simulating the effects of light rays as they interact with objects. DIS files typically contain scene description data, which includes information on geometry, materials, lighting, and camera settings, allowing the DKBTrace program to accurately render three-dimensional scenes. The format is text-based, making it possible for users to create and modify scene descriptions using a simple text editor. Over time, DKBTrace evolved into the more advanced and widely used POV-Ray (Persistence of Vision Raytracer), marking the DIS format as a predecessor to modern 3D rendering scene files.
- A JPEG file is an image saved in a compressed graphic format standardized by the Joint Photographic Experts Group (JPEG). It supports up to 24-bit color and is compressed using lossy compression, which may noticeably reduce the image quality if high amounts of compression are used. JPEG files are commonly used for storing digital photos and web graphics.
