FlashAssassin is a browser client application for the amazing Toshiba FlashAir™ SD card (a memory card that has a built-in wifi access point). It is installed right on the card itself and can easily be used with any HTML5-compliant browser.
The app allows photographers and their audience to review the pictures on a larger screen, such as a laptop, a projector or a mobile phone. This can be useful for shootings, workshops, demonstrations etc., whenever a cable would disturb.
The project provides a single page web application built on AngularJS 1, Bootstrap 3 and a few other libraries. It also includes a test server written in Python that provides a compatible implementation of the FlashAir API and thus can be used for debugging and testing the web app during development.
The project was inspired by JSFlashAero by Christian Holl (https://github.com/C-X1/JSFlashAero).
- display graphs like cameras show it
- histogram (combined or separated by color)
- display EXIF information
- resolution and aspect ratio
- file size
- aperture
- exposure time

- focal length
- focal length translated to 35mm film
Just copy the directory FlashAssassin into the card's root directory.
Connect to the FlashAir wifi, open your browser and navigate to http://flashair/FlashAssassin/index.html.
To run the test server, you need Python (tested on versions 2.7 and 3.3+) and the excellent Flask web development library (available as a package for most Linux distribution, on other systems pip (or pip3) can be used to install Flask).
After installing Flask, run python3 server.py in the root directory.
Now you can open the FlashAssassin app in your browser: http://127.0.0.1:5000/FlashAssassin/index.html
