What are all the binary stuff I get from Perl Image :: Info :: image_info ()?

I am getting the following output after running the code for the image

[1459]./image_info.pl lah.png 
$VAR1 = {
          'width' => 206,          'file_media_type' => 'image/png',
          'file_ext' => 'png',
          'PNG_Chunks' => [
                            'IHDR',
?V?????O?H??^#?C&?fu?M?5V??m6???M?s',
                            'IEND' 9   :˺??:?E??(;t??[/????o?4?4?O??TܲD

          'Compression' ? ((~??_^A ?c?vV??w????m,7????Eb???0J5?? ??? ????9????:?,24m[1460]

I don't understand the last bit of the file.

How do I change the encoding for reading?

The Perl module Image::Info

shouldn't display all this encoded data at all. My own tests of this unit have never done this, for example:

$VAR1 = {
          'width' => 58,
          'file_media_type' => 'image/png',
          'file_ext' => 'png',
          'PNG_Chunks' => [
                            'IHDR',
                            'IDAT',
                            'IEND'
                          ],
          'PNG_Filter' => 'Adaptive',
          'color_type' => 'Gray',
          'height' => 56,
          'SampleFormat' => 'U8',
          'Compression' => 'Deflate',
          'resolution' => '1/1'
        };


Try on another PNG file, it looks like it might be corrupted.

You are showing the binary as text. It will not be readable in any encoding.

Redirect the output of your script to a file:

./image_info.pl lah.png >log.txt 2>&1

Then open log.txt

in your favorite GUI text editor (like kate, gedit, notepad ++) by specifying ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8 in the open dialog. Try both encodings.
