About the RLA format
RLA — Alias/Wavefront RLA Image
RLA is a multi-channel image format developed by Alias Research (later Alias|Wavefront, now Autodesk) for 3D rendering and compositing. It stores standard color channels alongside auxiliary channels such as depth (Z), object ID, and normal vectors, enabling sophisticated compositing workflows.
Common uses
- 3D rendering compositing with depth and ID channels
- VFX multi-pass rendering output
- Converting legacy Alias/Maya render output
- 3D studio animation frame storage
About the SIX format
SIXEL — DEC SIXEL Graphics
SIXEL is a graphics format developed by DEC (Digital Equipment Corporation) for use in terminals and printers. It encodes bitmap images as a series of six-pixel-high bands transmitted as printable ASCII characters, and has seen a resurgence in modern terminal emulators.
Common uses
- Modern terminal emulator image display
- DEC terminal and VT-series printer output
- SSH session image viewing
- Converting images for terminal display
