Convert any text to cryptographic hash values and see how identicons are generated

How Identicons Work

Identicons are deterministic visual representations of text or data. The same input always produces the same identicon because they're generated using cryptographic hash functions.

Here's how it works:

  1. Text input is converted to bytes
  2. A hash function (like MD5) processes the bytes
  3. The hash output determines the pixel pattern
  4. Same text = Same hash = Same identicon!

This makes identicons perfect for digital identity and collectibles - each one is mathematically unique and reproducible.
