lågutupplösta

Lågutupplösta is a Swedish term that translates to "low-resolution" in English. It is commonly used to describe images, videos, or graphics that have a small number of pixels, resulting in a less detailed and often blurry appearance. The quality of a low-resolution image is determined by its pixel dimensions; for example, an image with 640x480 pixels is considered low-resolution compared to one with 1920x1080 pixels.

The term is often associated with digital media and can be a deliberate choice for stylistic effect or a consequence of technical limitations. In graphic design and web development, using low-resolution images can be a strategy to reduce file sizes and improve loading times, especially on mobile devices or for users with slower internet connections. However, when the intention is to display a detailed image, low resolution can be detrimental to the user experience.

In certain contexts, like pixel art, low resolution is an intentional aesthetic choice. This style deliberately uses a limited number of pixels to create a retro or stylized look. Conversely, when referring to content that is unintentionally low-resolution, it often implies a lack of quality or professionalism. This can occur when images are scaled up beyond their original dimensions or when they are captured with older or less capable technology. The perception of "low-resolution" can also be subjective and depend on the viewing device and distance.
