Convert MAT to PPM
Convert MAT images to PPM format, edit and optimize images online and free.
The MAT file (short for MATrix) is a data file format used by MATLAB to store variables, functions, and arrays, including images. It was developed by MathWorks to facilitate data exchange and storage within the MATLAB environment. The format is widely used in scientific and engineering applications for its ability to preserve complex data structures and multidimensional arrays.
The Portable Pixmap (PPM) file extension, an image format within the Netpbm family, stores simple, uncompressed images. Introduced in the late 1980s, PPM supports RGB color and grayscale images, making it suitable for basic image processing and conversion tasks. Its plain text encoding simplifies debugging and data manipulation, although its lack of compression results in larger file sizes compared to modern formats. As such, PPM finds limited use in contemporary applications, mainly in educational and experimental settings where ease of implementation and readability are prioritized.
