What is a potential result of having high pixel density in digital imaging?

High pixel density in digital imaging refers to a greater number of pixels per unit area, which has several implications for image quality and performance. The potential result of high pixel density is increased bandwidth requirements. This is because higher pixel density means that more data needs to be transmitted to represent the same area of the image. Each pixel carries its own information, and when more pixels are packed into the same space, the total amount of data increases significantly.

This increase in data volume requires more bandwidth for transmission, as the system needs to handle the larger files generated by high-resolution images. While improved image clarity is indeed a result of high pixel density, it is not the direct answer to this question about the consequences on system requirements. The other options, such as the signal to noise ratio or image processing times, may be affected in different contexts, but they do not directly correlate to the primary outcome of pixel density in terms of bandwidth needs.
