- Description
- HDRI (High Dynamic Range Imaging) is a file format used for images that preserve a wide range of luminance levels, more than what standard digital imaging techniques or photographic methods can capture. This allows for more accurate representation of the intensity and range of light in real scenes, from direct sunlight to faint starlight. HDRI files are often used in 3D modeling, visual effects, and photography to achieve more realistic lighting and shading. They can store image data with a greater bit depth per channel than standard 8-bit images, enabling finer gradations of shade and light.
- A DCM file is an image file saved in the Digital Imaging and Communications in Medicine (DICOM) image format. It stores a medical image, such as a CT scan or ultrasound. DCM files may also include patient information to pair the image with the patient.
