Grayscale
Term · Computing and IT · MLC-T-CMP-000496
A range of shades of gray without apparent color, typically ranging from pure black to pure white. In digital imaging, each pixel in a grayscale image holds a single numerical value representing its intensity, rather than separate values for red, green, and blue. An 8-bit grayscale image can represent 256 different shades of gray.
