Pixelöitymistä
Pixelöitymistä, known in English as pixelization, is the process of transforming continuous visual information into a discrete grid of colored pixels. The technique is ubiquitous in digital imaging, video compression, and graphical user interfaces, where it enables efficient data representation and manipulation. By aggregating neighboring light or color samples into single units, pixelization reduces resolution, which can be applied intentionally for artistic effect, data compression, or to obscure sensitive content.
The basic algorithm samples an image at regular intervals, computes a representative color for each block,
Historically, pixelization emerged with the development of raster graphics in the 1970s as early computers and
