Digital graphics

By:-Rishi Rana
Introduction: in this presentation Im going to talk about two types of graphics
products,
Choose two and review them. I will also discuss the impact of their usage
There are two main image graphics Vector maps and Bitmaps
One element that is to be factored in to the graphics is the resolution. Within a bitmap
image resolution is based on numbers of pixels present, the more pixels per inch (PPI) the
higher the resolution .resolution will have to be consider when creating a graphic as you
may need to send the file across a network its important to decide whether or not the
image will be of a high or low quality.
Vector maps: - vector graphics are not made up of a grid of pixels. Instead,

vector graphics are comprised of paths, which are defined by a start and end
point, along with other points, curves, and angles along the way. A path can
be a line, a square, a triangle, or a curvy shape. These paths can be used to
create simple drawings or complex diagrams.

My first choice of image is in a bitmap

format however the sing is created by
vector technique so it is a mixture of vector
and bitmap.
It is probably taken from someones camera
so the quality is not so good to start with.

The format of this image is JPEG image (.jpg)

And it takes 11.0 KB (11,322 bytes) of memory
Aim of this image-this image was created to alert and entertain road drivers
Weaknesses-some text is packed together which is hard to read
Strength-good colour combination and the Beware lettering really stands out
This file is in jpeg format therefore it takes less memory in the systems storage

Bitmap images: - A bitmap (or raster graphic) is a digital image composed of

a matrix of dots. When viewed at 100%, each dot corresponds to an

individual pixel on a display. In a standard bitmap image, each dot can be

assigned a different colour. Together, these dots can be used to represent any
type of rectangular picture.
There are several different bitmap file formats. The standard, uncompressed
bitmap format is also known as the "BMP" format or the device independent
bitmap (DIB) format. It includes a header, which defines the size of the image
and the number of colours the image may contain, and a list of pixels with
their corresponding colours. This simple, universal image format can be
recognized on nearly all platforms, but is not very efficient, especially for
large images.
Other bitmap image formats, such as JPEG, GIF, and PNG, incorporate
compression algorithms to reduce file size. Each format uses a different type
of compression, but they all represent an image as a grid of pixels.
Compressed bitmaps are significantly smaller than uncompressed BMP files
and can be downloaded more quickly. Therefore, most images you see on the
web are compressed bitmaps.
If you zoom into a bitmap image, regardless of the file format, it will look
blocky because each dot will take up more than one pixel. Therefore, bitmap
images will appear blurry if they are enlarged.
