The portable Filename .ppm, .pgm, .pbm, pixmap format (PPM), the portable graymap format extension .pnm (PGM) and the portable bitmap format (PBM) are image file formats designed to be easily exchanged between Internet image/x-portable- platforms.

Poskanzer developed the first library of tools to handle the PBM format, Pbmplus, released in 1988. It mainly contained tools to convert between PBM and other graphics formats. By the end of 1988, Poskanzer had developed the PGM and PPM formats along with their associated tools and added them to Pbmplus. The final release of Pbmplus was December 10, 1991. In 1993, the Netpbm library was developed to replace the unmaintained Pbmplus.

It seeks to deepen the understanding of the dynamic capabilities model by proposing cognition and not previous resource deployment is the limit of change.

  • Farewell to the Kodak DCS Dslrs
    John Henshall’s Chip Shop FAREWELL TO THE KODAK DCS John Henshall looks at Kodak’s legacy as the end of its DSLR production is announced . hen Kodak introduced the the world’s first totally portable Digital W Camera System – the DCS – in 1991 it established Eastman Kodak as the world leader of professional digital image capture. Fourteen years later, Kodak has just announced that it is ending production 1992: DCS200 of Digital Single Lens Reflex cameras. The DCS was a product launched ahead of its potential market, but one which indelibly marked the start of the future of photography. Kodak was smart. It housed its DCS in something photographers were already at home with: a Nikon F3 camera body. All the F3’s functions were retained, and the DCS used standard Nikon lenses. Only the 1991: The original Kodak DCS [100] and DSU 2005: Last of the line – the DCS ProSLR/c focusing screen was changed.

  • Image Formats
    Image Formats Ioannis Rekleitis Many different file formats • JPEG/JFIF • Exif • JPEG 2000 • BMP • GIF • WebP • PNG • HDR raster formats • TIFF • HEIF • PPM, PGM, PBM, • BAT and PNM • BPG CSCE 590: Introduction to Image Processing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image_file_formats 2 Many different file formats • JPEG/JFIF (Joint Photographic Experts Group) is a lossy compression method; JPEG- compressed images are usually stored in the JFIF (JPEG File Interchange Format) >ile format. The JPEG/JFIF >ilename extension is JPG or JPEG. Nearly every digital camera can save images in the JPEG/JFIF format, which supports eight-bit grayscale images and 24-bit color images (eight bits each for red, green, and blue). JPEG applies lossy compression to images, which can result in a signi>icant reduction of the >ile size. Applications can determine the degree of compression to apply, and the amount of compression affects the visual quality of the result. When not too great, the compression does not noticeably affect or detract from the image's quality, but JPEG iles suffer generational degradation when repeatedly edited and saved. (JPEG also provides lossless image storage, but the lossless version is not widely supported.) • JPEG 2000 is a compression standard enabling both lossless and lossy storage. The compression methods used are different from the ones in standard JFIF/JPEG; they improve quality and compression ratios, but also require more computational power to process. JPEG 2000 also adds features that are missing in JPEG. It is not nearly as common as JPEG, but it is used currently in professional movie editing and distribution (some digital cinemas, for example, use JPEG 2000 for individual movie frames).

  • KODAK MILESTONES 1879 - Eastman Invented an Emulsion-Coating Machine Which Enabled Him to Mass- Produce Photographic Dry Plates
    KODAK MILESTONES 1879 - Eastman invented an emulsion-coating machine which enabled him to mass- produce photographic dry plates. 1880 - Eastman began commercial production of dry plates in a rented loft of a building in Rochester, N.Y. 1881 - In January, Eastman and Henry A. Strong (a family friend and buggy-whip manufacturer) formed a partnership known as the Eastman Dry Plate Company. ♦ In September, Eastman quit his job as a bank clerk to devote his full time to the business. 1883 - The Eastman Dry Plate Company completed transfer of operations to a four- story building at what is now 343 State Street, Rochester, NY, the company's worldwide headquarters. 1884 - The business was changed from a partnership to a $200,000 corporation with 14 shareowners when the Eastman Dry Plate and Film Company was formed. ♦ EASTMAN Negative Paper was introduced. ♦ Eastman and William H. Walker, an associate, invented a roll holder for negative papers. 1885 - EASTMAN American Film was introduced - the first transparent photographic "film" as we know it today. ♦ The company opened a wholesale office in London, England. 1886 - George Eastman became one of the first American industrialists to employ a full- time research scientist to aid in the commercialization of a flexible, transparent film base. 1888 - The name "Kodak" was born and the KODAK camera was placed on the market, with the slogan, "You press the button - we do the rest." This was the birth of snapshot photography, as millions of amateur picture-takers know it today. 1889 - The first commercial transparent roll film, perfected by Eastman and his research chemist, was put on the market.
