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.

Sun Raster (.sun)

The Sun Raster (SUN) file extension, originating from Sun Microsystems, is a bitmap image format used primarily on SunOS systems. Known for its versatility in storing raster graphics, it supports various color depths, from monochrome to 24-bit true color. Initially created for the Sun workstation's image processing software, it facilitated efficient graphical data manipulation and transmission. Over time, its straightforward structure and compatibility with different Unix-based systems ensured its adoption in diverse graphic applications. Today, while largely historical, the SUN file format remains an important part of the legacy of early computer graphics development.
