Convert SIX to WBMP
Convert SIX images to WBMP format, edit and optimize images online and free.
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.
WBMP, or Wireless Bitmap, is a monochrome graphics file format specifically designed for wireless devices, such as mobile phones and PDAs. It was introduced as part of the Wireless Application Protocol (WAP) standard to facilitate the display of simple images on limited display screens of early mobile devices. The format is highly optimized for low-bandwidth environments and supports only black and white colors to minimize data transmission requirements. WBMP files are compact and easy to process, making them ideal for the constrained resources of early wireless communications technology. WBMP played a crucial role in the early days of mobile web browsing by enabling basic graphical content on devices with minimal graphical capabilities.
