pixels
Digital image units
Pixels are the tiny individual dots that make up a digital image or display.
Each pixel holds color and brightness information; together, millions of pixels form photographs, videos, and everything you see on a screen.
Higher pixel counts produce sharper images: The camera shoots at 12 megapixels.
The word blends "picture" and "element."
