How ASCII Art Generator works

The image is loaded onto a hidden HTML5 canvas at your chosen width. Our algorithm scans every pixel and calculates its brightness using the standard luminance formula (0.299R + 0.587G + 0.114B). We then map that brightness value to a specific ASCII character. Dark pixels get dense characters like '@' or '#', while bright pixels get spaces or dots. The script compensates for line height automatically, resulting in an accurate text-based representation of your photo.
