Image to hex file converter

Hey, I'm tring to convert an image file (bmp, gif) to a long string of hex numbers (hex file). I'm planning to upload the image in this form to an LCD. Is there any software available to do the same?

Hi akhilvarma. Welcome to the forum ):P

Yes. Take a look at the command line 'od'. For instance:

Code:

---

od -x file.gif

---

For more details:

Code:

---

man od

---

Hope it helps. Regards.
