A JPEG file is a flat, two-dimensional image file format created for the purpose of storing photographic images in a highly efficient digital format. JPEG files are widely used and supported by all image editing applications and can be opened on most devices with no additional image viewing software.
For many years, image file formats consumed large amounts of storage space while not offering 16.7 million full-color capabilities. JPEG aimed to solve this by offering a full-color solution combined with lossy compression techniques to allow high-resolution photographs to be stored using very little storage space and bandwidth.
Uses
The JPEG format is ideally suited to storing full-color photographic images. Due to the lossy compression it employs, it is not suitable for storing high-fidelity items such as logos and any image that contains transparency.

The FBX format, which is short for Filmbox, is a 3D modeling format developed by Autodesk with the aim of making it an open and easy-to-use way to distribute 3D models. The format started out in the mid-1990s and quickly gained traction, with its development continuing to this day.
Along with compatibility with Autodesk's Maya and 3Ds Max applications, FBX files have gained support with other 3D model editors, including Blender.
Mesh Geometry
An FBX file is composed of 3D mesh data, including vertices, faces, normals, textures, and animations, in a text and binary format to produce a portable file that is both easy to develop and compact and efficient as a medium for the distribution of models and full 3D scenes.
