- 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.
- Created by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC), SIXEL is a bitmap image format in an escaped sequence (seen as six pixels high and one pixel wide). You have to convert it into a more accessible format if you don’t have a DEC terminal to view it.
