Also, there is a specific data buffer for each: [DataBufferFloat](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/java/awt/image/DataBufferFloat.java#L67), [DataBufferDouble](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/java/awt/image/DataBufferDouble.java#L67), and [DataBufferShort](https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/blob/master/src/java.desktop/share/classes/java/awt/image/DataBufferShort.java#L74).
