pikslipõhisel

Pikslipõhisel is an Estonian term that translates to "pixel-based" or "based on pixels." It refers to a digital image or graphic that is composed of a grid of individual colored squares, known as pixels. Each pixel has a specific color value, and together these pixels form the complete image. This is in contrast to vector graphics, which are defined by mathematical equations representing lines and curves.

Pixel-based images, also known as raster images, are commonly used for photographs and complex digital artwork. Their resolution is fixed, meaning that if you enlarge a pixel-based image beyond its original dimensions, the individual pixels become visible, leading to a loss of quality and a "pixelated" appearance. Common file formats for pixel-based images include JPEG, PNG, and GIF. The quality and detail of a pixel-based image are determined by its resolution, typically measured in dots per inch (DPI) or pixels per inch (PPI). Higher resolution means more pixels are used to represent the image, resulting in sharper and more detailed visuals. Editing pixel-based images often involves manipulating individual pixels or groups of pixels directly.
