Difference between pixel and resolution

Pixels are equal to resolution times size. The higher the pixel, the smaller the size, the higher the picture resolution, and the clearer the image looks.

Resolution and pixel are two different concepts, and they are interrelated.

Pixel, px, is the smallest point on the screen. The size of pixels will "change", which is called "relative length". For digital pictures, each color point is called a pixel. A picture consists of 300,000 color points, and the pixel of this picture is 30W.

Generally speaking, how many pixels is a camera? This pixel means how many sensors there are in this camera. The camera of 100W sensor is 100W pixel camera, the camera of 4000W sensor is 4000W pixel camera, and so on.

Resolution = pixel value on the x axis of the screen * pixel value on the y axis. If the screen is 1024×768, it means that there are 1024 pixels in the horizontal direction and 768 pixels in the vertical direction.
