Joint Photographic Experts Group (.jpeg)

JPEG, short for Joint Photographic Experts Group, is a widely-used image file format for compressing digital photographs. Established in 1992 by the Joint Photographic Experts Group, it revolutionized digital imagery by providing efficient, lossy compression that maintains significant image quality. Primarily used in digital cameras, web graphics, and image sharing, JPEG files support full-color imaging with 24-bit depth, enabling detailed and high-quality photographs in relatively small file sizes.

High Efficiency Image Container (.heic)

The High Efficiency Image Container (HEIC) is a file extension used to store images and image sequences, leveraging the High Efficiency Image Format (HEIF). Developed by the Moving Picture Experts Group (MPEG) and introduced in 2015, HEIC files are acclaimed for their superior compression efficiency, which allows for high-quality images at smaller file sizes. This format is widely used in modern digital devices, including smartphones and cameras, to optimize storage capacity without compromising image quality. It supports advanced features such as live photos, burst photo sequences, and transparent images, making it integral for contemporary digital imaging solutions.
