OpenEXR (.exr)

The EXR file extension stands for OpenEXR, a high dynamic range (HDR) image file format developed by Industrial Light & Magic (ILM) in 1999 for visual effects and film production. OpenEXR is widely used for its ability to store multi-channel, floating-point images, supporting complex visual effects workflows with superior image quality and precision. Its features include lossless and lossy compression, arbitrary image channels, and a flexible data structure, making it an essential tool in professional digital imaging and animation industries.

DEC Six Pixels (.sixel)

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.
