Silicon Graphics Image (.sgi)

The SGI file extension stands for Silicon Graphics Image, a raster graphics file format developed by Silicon Graphics Inc. primarily for their IRIS workstations. This format, originating in the late 1980s, supports uncompressed and RLE-compressed data with up to 48-bit color (16 bits per channel for RGB) and an alpha channel. SGI files are widely utilized in 3D graphics, visualization, and high-end imaging due to their ability to store high-quality images and intricate details, making them an essential asset in professional graphics and animation industries.
