intensity of each parts of the spectrum.

The acquired values then stored in the form of matrix into a file that is called
\emph{an image}.
\emph{an image}. If we take a black-and-white camera with the resolution of
16x16 pixels it will give us an image of $16 * 16 = 256$ pixels in size. If the
ADC has the resolution of 8 bits then the amount of image data can be calculated using the following equation:

\begin{equation}
\mbox{Amount of data} = 16 * 16 * 8 = 2048 \mbox{bits} = 256 \mbox{bytes}
\label{equation:adc-image-0}
\end{equation}

For colorful images the amount of stored data is bigger, because we need to
store three color components: red, green and blue (in the RGB format.) If we
also take the 8-bits ADC then each pixel we need to store $8 * 3 = 24$ bits of
information. Let's take another look at the example with 16x16 pixels camera
and substitute new values to the equation:

\begin{equation}
\mbox{Amount of data} = 16 * 16 * 24 = 6144 \mbox{bits} = 768 \mbox{bytes}
\label{equation:adc-image-1}
\end{equation}
