Heuristic signals, not aesthetic judgments. Bokeh, noise and high/low-key scenes can mislead scores. No face or closed-eye detection. Near-duplicate groups are conservative, not semantic scene groups.

Edge detail is a relative multi-scale edge signal, not focus probability. Clipped pixels: luminance ≤8 / ≥247. Originals are unchanged. Metrics use a 256 px analysis thumbnail, not full-resolution exposure metering.

Overview

Batch Photo Quality Culler is a private, client-side light table tool designed to help you quickly inspect and sort batches of images based on heuristic sharpness, exposure limits, and near-duplicate grouping without sending any files to a remote server.

When to use

  • When you need to prune bursts of continuous-shot photos to isolate the sharpest frame from near-duplicates.
  • When sorting through a large batch of images to identify under-exposed or blown-out frames with extreme pixel clipping.
  • When culling client galleries or private shoots that cannot be uploaded to third-party cloud services or AI processors.

How it works

  1. 1Load up to 100 local JPEG, PNG, or WebP files into your browser or toggle the demo mode to generate synthetic test photos.
  2. 2The browser decodes each image locally and generates a 256 px analysis thumbnail to compute relative multi-scale edge details and identify clipped shadow or highlight pixels.
  3. 3Conservative similarity algorithms group near-duplicate captures side-by-side so you can compare technical signals and pick which files to keep while keeping original files completely unchanged.

Use cases

  • Comparing action sequence bursts to discard soft or blurry shots and retain only crisp frames.
  • Spotting accidental overexposed or underexposed bracketed shots during initial photo sorting.
  • Organizing and trimming near-identical product catalog photos before downstream post-processing.

Examples

1. Culling Action Burst Sequences

Sports Photographer

Background

A photographer shoots continuous bursts of athletes running and needs to eliminate softer duplicate frames quickly after an event.

Problem

Reviewing dozens of near-identical frames manually takes significant time, especially when verifying micro-sharpness.

How to use

Open the tool, drag in a burst of 30 JPEG files, review the grouped near-duplicates, and inspect the multi-scale edge detail values to flag the sharpest frame.

demo: false

Outcome

Sharp frames are pinpointed based on edge signals and near-duplicates are culled without altering the raw original files.

2. Testing Heuristic Metrics with Demo Photos

Photography Student

Background

A student wants to understand how automated metrics treat clipped shadows, highlights, and intentional optical bokeh.

Problem

The student needs reference examples to see how heuristic scores handle blown-out skies and soft backgrounds without preparing custom files.

How to use

Enable the demo mode option to populate the light table with synthetic benchmark photos representing sharp, soft, duplicate, and high/low-key scenes.

FAQ

Are my photos uploaded to a server or used to train AI models?

No. All decoding, analysis, and thumbnail generation happen strictly inside your browser using local heuristic algorithms, with zero network uploads.

What file formats and batch limits are supported?

The tool supports JPEG, PNG, and WebP formats, accommodating up to 100 images, 20 MB per file, a 100 MB total batch limit, and a maximum of 40 decoded megapixels per image.

Does the tool detect human faces or closed eyes?

No. The analyzer uses non-AI heuristics focused on edge detail and luminance levels; it does not perform facial recognition, eye tracking, or semantic scene clustering.

How are blown highlights and crushed shadows calculated?

Clipped pixels are flagged on the 256 px analysis thumbnail when luminance levels register at or below 8 for shadows or at or above 247 for highlights.

Will using this tool modify or compress my original image files?

No. Original file bytes remain completely unchanged throughout the culling session.

Health

Thyroid Index (TSH/FT4/FT3 Interpretation)

Interpret the thyroid axis by pattern-reading TSH with FT4 and (optionally) FT3. Adult reference ranges: TSH 0.4–4.0 mIU/L, FT4 0.8–1.8 ng/dL (≈10–23 pmol/L), FT3 2.3–4.2 pg/mL (≈3.5–6.5 pmol/L). High TSH + low FT4 → overt primary hypothyroidism; high TSH + normal FT4 → subclinical hypothyroidism; low TSH + high FT4/FT3 → overt primary hyperthyroidism; low TSH + normal FT4 → subclinical hyperthyroidism, exogenous hormone, or resolving thyroiditis (check FT3 for T3 toxicosis); low/normal TSH + low FT4 → central hypothyroidism; high TSH + high FT4 → TSH-secreting adenoma or thyroid hormone resistance. Low FT3 with normal TSH/FT4 indicates low-T3 (non-thyroidal illness) syndrome. Units selectable for TSH, FT4, FT3. Derived from ATA 2014/2016, NACB 2002, Garber 2012, and MDCalc. Not medical advice.

Media

Lossy Codec Preview Compare

Hear and measure what streaming does to your master: encode to MP3, AAC or Opus at real streaming bitrates, decode back, and compare loudness shift, true-peak overshoot and headroom against the original — the Apple Digital Masters round-trip audition as a report plus downloadable preview files.

Cryptography

Hash Algorithm Comparator

Hash the same input with MD5, SHA-1, SHA-256, SHA-512, BLAKE2b, and BLAKE3 at the same time and compare them side by side: output length, hex/Base64 digest, security status (broken / modern), and a relative speed benchmark. Great for teaching, choosing a hashing algorithm, or sanity-checking checksums.
