2.6 lesson 7:
images


In this LESSON you will learn about:

Learning Objectives:


  • how an image is represented as a series of pixels represented in binary
  • metadata included in the file
  • the effect of colour depth and resolution on the size of an image file.
  1. ​​​​Know how Binary is used to code images
  2. Create your on image by converting Binary and Denary values
  3. Describe how the resolution and colour depth impact in the size of a file.

Lesson Overview 

Resources


Starter:
How are images deployed on a screen?
​

Main:
In this lesson you will learn about how Binary code can be used to create images.  An image is made up from pixels which can be turned on or off.  These combinations of on and off can also be used to create colour images.
  • You will use the 'Binary Code File' to create some images
  • Who can create the best image?
  • Compare your image with another student and discuss improvements or errors.
  • Easy? try the colour example on the next worksheet
