In physics, a vector is quantity and a direction at the same time. This can also make the image big and the quality of the image doesn't get as much blurred as a raster image, also the difference is that a rater image is only 2D and The vector image can do 2D and 3D. Types of Vector images are PSD, WMF, FLA and AI.
