HDR to FTS conversion is the process of transforming an image stored in HDR (High Dynamic Range) format into the FTS image format. This conversion adapts HDR’s wide luminance and color range into the FTS file structure and encoding rules so the image can be viewed or processed by tools that support FTS.

HDR files generally use the image/vnd.radiance MIME type and store high dynamic range images. FTS files typically use the application/fits MIME type, popular in astronomy and scientific imaging for storing flexible image data. Codecs vary, but HDR focuses on radiance encoding, whereas FTS utilizes FITS standards for data representation.
The FTS (.FTS) format is commonly used for image. Understanding its characteristics can be helpful when converting to or from other formats like HDR.
While specific technical details aren't available here, FTS files generally serve the purpose of storing image effectively within their domain.

HDR files store high dynamic range image data primarily for enhanced visual quality, while FTS files focus on optimized storage and compatibility for specific imaging applications. Unlike HDR, FTS is often preferred for its streamlined format suitable for advanced editing workflows.
Keep original HDR files under 400–500MB for smooth browser-based conversion; large OpenEXR files may require desktop tools.
To preserve dynamic range, use a high-quality or lossless FTS option and avoid aggressive tone-mapping during conversion.
For batch conversions, process in groups of 10–50 files depending on file size and system memory; use a CLI or desktop app for large batches.
Remember that some FTS implementations are limited to 8–16 bits per channel, so full 32-bit float HDR precision may be reduced during conversion.
