The SIX file extension, short for "six pixels", is a bitmap graphics format developed by Digital Equipment Corporation (DEC) for their terminals and printers. Introduced initially to send bitmap graphics to DEC dot matrix printers like the LA50, SIX later facilitated the transfer of soft fonts to terminals such as the VT220. This format encodes images using a series of six-pixel-high patterns, making it efficient for transmitting graphics over 7-bit serial links. Rediscovered around 2010, SIX remains in use with modern terminal emulators for tasks like video playback.
The VICAR file extension, developed by NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, is a raster image format designed for storing and processing multi-dimensional scientific data from space missions. It includes metadata labels and image data, supporting various data types used in biomedical imaging and geological studies. The format ensures data integrity and usability, and the open-source VICAR software system enhances accessibility for scientific research.
