How It Works

1. Image Processing

The tool analyzes your image on a canvas element, reading pixel data without uploading it to a server.

2. Brightness Mapping

Each pixel's brightness is calculated and mapped to a character in the selected ASCII set.

3. Art Construction

The characters are assembled into a string, creating a text-based representation of your image.
