as the Industrial Revolution was the beginning of the Industrial Age
so can the digital revolution be associated with the Information Age
technologies such as computers digital cellular phones and the internet have
been revolutionary and continues to bring forward new
methods of doing things in all fields the discovery of new technologies are
accompanied by learning experience that require us to operate an experiment with
the newly discovered we distinguish and identify what we see in the world around
us and the objects we interact with by means of colors lighting and size
interacting with and understanding digital media requires the same approach
the main interface between man and computer or a display screen that shows
binary code in a language that we can understand numerous displays such as
those of smartphones computers and TVs make use of pixels in 1965 Fred C
Billingsley published an article which was the first official introduction of
the word pixel today the term is used in the areas of digital displays computer
graphics cameras and Printers with a definition that is somewhat clashing the
term pixel is derived from picture element and from Iran further isn't
reference to the smallest distinct element of a picture represented on a
digital display each individual pixel is made up of a red green and blue section
also known as RGB only one color is seen at a time which is due to the very small
size of a pixel from the viewers point of view if you look at a pixel from very
close such as in a close-up photograph or magnifying glass it is clearly
evident that it's composed of three colors all three of the colors can be
varied in intensity to provide different colors almost any color can be created
with each of the respective main colors being variable between 0 and 255 of each
number representing a slight variation of the color with all three colors say
to 255 white is the resulting color and when each colors RGB value is changed to
zero black is the resulting color combining the possible variations of
each color is 255 to the power of 3 which results in over 16
five million colors a bet can be represented as two ^ one with the RGB
value ranging from zero to 255 of zero inclusive there is 256 possibilities and
this equals 2 ^ a each main color value is represented by 8 bits or one byte
videos images and programs stalls the RGB values of each pixel in binary code
and the appropriate color is then displayed and made visible to the viewer
understanding how individual pixels work makes it simple to understand how an
image is displayed on a screen screens are composed of large amounts of pixels
and exact numbers are indicated by the resolution let's take a 4k display it
has a resolution of 4096 by 2160 pixels meaning there is 4096 columns and 2160
rows of pixels and the product of these values are the total number of pixels in
the roster this equals eight point eight five million pixels apart from the
resolution digital screen possess a property known as pixel density which is
commonly measured in pixels per inch PPI or dots per inch dpi it is easily
comparable when considering the computer monitor and smartphone both with a
resolution of 1920 by 1080 in the smartphone the pixels are more densely
packed into the roster with roughly 2 million pixels crammed into a 5.8 inch
screen it is clear that pixel size must be smaller when compared to the pixel
size of the 24 inch monitor display that is also made up of 2 million pixels
using the pixel density of the phone on a display of the same size as that of
the monitor will result in an image that is crisper a screen base representing
that which the human eye sees in the world around us will have a very high
resolution along with a very high pixel density with the rise of virtual reality
and digital display screens being incorporated in more and more products I
believe we will be looking at pixels for a very long time the only way this will
be the case is if a newfound technology or solution comes forward which deems
the pixel obsolete pixel densities will increase and resolutions will
