Convert SUN to PHM
Convert SUN images to PHM format, edit and optimize images online and free.
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.
The PHM file extension stands for Portable Float-map Image (16-bit half), a format used for storing high dynamic range (HDR) images with 16-bit half-precision floating-point values. This format is particularly useful in applications requiring precise color representation and extensive dynamic range, such as computer graphics, image processing, and scientific visualization. Originating from the Portable FloatMap (PFM) format, PHM was developed to provide a more efficient storage solution by utilizing half-precision floats, thereby reducing file size while maintaining significant detail and accuracy.
