Order Images by Brightness

A tool that renames and reorders images in a folder by their brightness value to allow a better viewing experience.

My company had multiple disorganized folders full of texture images used for architectural visualization.

I was requested to organize these folders so that architects could easily identify and select textures they desired.

The Problem

I wrote a tool in Python that would take the brightness of the images, reorder them from
darkest to lightest, and allow the user to rename the images into a more legible format.

Below is a demonstration of the before and after of the images in the folder.

The Solution

unorganized wood texture images, illegible file names
