Resolution
What is resolution?
Resolution refers to the clarity and detail of an image, video, or display, measured by the number of pixels in width and height (e.g., 1920×1080 for Full HD). Higher resolution means more pixels, resulting in sharper and more detailed visuals. In video and display technology, resolution affects image quality, readability, and viewing experience. In printing and digital graphics, resolution is measured in dots per inch (DPI) or pixels per inch (PPI), influencing the sharpness of printed or on-screen images. Businesses rely on high-resolution security footage, displays, and digital content to ensure clear visibility and accurate details.

Why is resolution important?
Resolution is important because it determines the clarity, detail, and sharpness of images, videos, and displays. Higher resolution means more pixels, resulting in crisper visuals, clearer text, and better overall image quality. In security, high-resolution cameras capture sharper footage, making it easier to identify faces, license plates, and suspicious activity. In business, high-resolution displays improve customer experience, enhance digital signage, and ensure accurate product visuals. For photography, video, and printing, resolution impacts the quality of the final output, ensuring sharp details and vibrant colors. Whether for security, marketing, or media, high resolution improves visibility, accuracy, and overall effectiveness.
