HEIC (full name: High Efficiency Image Format) is an efficient image file format, also known as HEIF (High Efficiency Image File Format). It was developed by the MPEG organization (Moving Picture Experts Group) and adopted by Apple as its default photo format for iOS 11 and later. HEIC has a smaller file size and higher image quality than traditional JPEG formats. This is because HEIC uses advanced compression algorithms such as HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding) to reduce the size of image files while retaining more image detail and color information. In addition to smaller file sizes and higher image quality, HEIC supports other features such as transparency, depth images, and dynamic range images. This makes it more flexible and versatile in editing and sharing images. Although HEIC has become one of the mainstream image formats, not all devices and operating systems are able to process, display or edit HEIC files correctly. If you need to view or edit HEIC images on a device that does not support HEIC, you can convert them to other formats such as JPEG or PNG.
The PLY format is a 3D model format developed and released in 1994, primarily used to store 3D data from 3D digital scanners. The format, also known as the Polygon File Format and Stanford Triangle Format, can be either binary or text-based.
The file format stores 3D geometric information, such as vertices, faces, vertex normals, colors, and other custom data. Many PLY models still use this format, available for download, and PLY files can be loaded into popular 3D applications such as Blender.
