digitised
Converted to binary
Digitised is the British spelling of digitized, meaning converted from analog to digital form.
Physical documents, photographs, audio recordings, and film can all be digitised for storage, searching, and preservation: The library has digitised its entire newspaper archive.
The process transforms continuous signals into discrete numerical data that computers can process.
