• Used huffman encoding to compress BMP images, with pixel level encoding using C
• Implemented frequency analysis and Huffman tree construction for RGB channels, including bit-level packing of variable-length codes for efficient storage
• Added a configurable quality/loss factor, adjusting color-space quantization to balance compression ratio and fidelity.
