A framebuffer is a portion of RAM that contains a bitmap representing all the pixels in a video frame, which is used to drive a video display. It converts the bitmap into a video signal that can be displayed on a computer monitor. The screen buffer, also known as the video buffer or regen buffer, is a part of computer memory used by applications to represent the content shown on the computer display, typically consisting of color values for each pixel.
