The RGB565 field is a member of the ImageFormat enumeration in the Sandbox namespace. It represents an image format where each pixel is stored using 16 bits. Specifically, the format uses 5 bits for the red channel, 6 bits for the green channel, and 5 bits for the blue channel. This format is commonly used in scenarios where memory efficiency is important, such as in embedded systems or mobile devices, where full 24-bit color depth is not necessary.
Use the RGB565 format when you need to store images with a reduced color depth to save memory. This format is particularly useful in applications where the display hardware supports 16-bit color depth, or when you need to optimize for performance and memory usage.
// Example of using ImageFormat.RGB565
ImageFormat format = ImageFormat.RGB565;
// Use the format in a hypothetical image processing function
ProcessImage(imageData, format);
void ProcessImage(byte[] data, ImageFormat format)
{
if (format == ImageFormat.RGB565)
{
// Handle RGB565 specific processing
}
}
