- Description
- The WBMP (Wireless Bitmap Image) file format is a monochrome graphics format optimized for mobile computing devices with limited display capabilities. It was developed for use in the early days of mobile internet to display images on mobile phones and other wireless devices with minimal processing power and storage. WBMP files contain bitmap images that are typically small and use a black and white color palette, making them highly efficient for fast loading times and minimal data usage.
- Generic Windows or OS/2 bitmap graphic; similar to a .BMP file, but has different header information; supports 1, 4, 8, and 24 bits per pixel if the image is uncompressed and 4 and 8 bits per pixel if the image uses RLE compression; a 24-bit DIB image contains 8 bits, or 1 byte for each RGB color.
