BGR Image Format

The BGR image format arranges pixel data in blue, green, red order rather than the more usual RGB order. Commonly used by graphics libraries and video codecs for its memory alignment, this format can be seamlessly transformed to SIXEL on a dedicated conversion page. A specialized converter reads raw pixel streams, maps each BGR triplet to terminal color codes, and encodes them as SIXEL sequences. This process preserves color fidelity, minimizes processing overhead, and delivers sharp terminal graphics without intermediate format changes.

SIXEL Image Format

SIXEL is a run-length encoded image protocol originally developed for DEC terminals that embeds pixel graphics into text streams. By mapping color indices onto six distinct vertical pixel positions within each character cell, it enables efficient representation of monochrome and color images over serial connections. A BGR to SIXEL converter transforms raw pixel data by reordering blue, green, and red channels and packaging them into SIXEL escape sequences supported by terminals or emulators. This conversion preserves image fidelity while minimizing payload size and ensures broad support across legacy and modern text interfaces.

Why Convert BGR to SIXEL?

Converting images from BGR to SIXEL format streamlines integration of high-resolution graphics into terminal environments, ensuring accurate color representation and compact data transmission. By using a dedicated BGR-to-SIXEL converter, developers can embed vibrant visuals directly into command-line interfaces without relying on external files, improving performance, compatibility, and user experience across legacy and modern terminals that support SIXEL protocols.
