STX to RAD Conversion: FAQ
What are STX files?
STX files represent RAW images created with SBIG CCD cameras. They are part of a group of formats known as Santa Barbara Instruments Astronomical Images, also including ST5, ST6, ST7 and ST8. Apart from astronomy, SBIG cameras can also be used in medical imaging, color photometry and a few other scientific and industrial sectors. All formats in the group are considered specialized and rare, so opening STX files might be possible only after conversion to more widely available extensions.
What are RAD files?
The RAD format is supported by a ray tracing application called Radiance, which contains several tools that support lighting simulation and measuring light levels. RAD files are often used in architectural project to design and evaluate lighting systems. Apart from lighting features, they can also save objects and materials, and they serve as input for OCT files that facilitate the scene rendering.
