A few folks have created or are working on or creating a photo booth out of a Raspberry Pi. Well here are a couple of articles that inspired my own creation:
Nuts & Volts Magazine - PiBooth — A Raspberry Pi based Photo Booth https://www.nutsvolts.com/magazine/article/march2016_RaspPiDigitalPhotoBooth?utm_source=hs_email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=62771234&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-84lpjjscMffSrFGWHjLteFtZLo6DBRrRXfHow77iZnM41_2eiBJUaH4AmZB6uHhX0xN_mY4yJsZ1IlDOm7GGLtuN3S6Q&_hsmi=62771234 (see a PDF: https://drive.google.com/open?id=19H2WCCVmit6bpHUmENlRNUzmriHIG5AZ) Make: Create a Raspberry Pi Photo Booth for Your Next Party https://makezine.com/projects/raspberry-pi-photo-booth/ (see a PDF: https://drive.google.com/open?id=1b2yNlttihTjVpg8uhF7FNWQpbEKRiuS3) Like the Make Magazine article, I created a mock-up Brownie camera, and like the Nuts&Volts version I offer some funny masks, noses, hats and so on from Marti Gras, New Years Eve, and a Halloween Ball. My own twists include a bright-white LED bar on top that "flashes" like an old magnesium flashpot, and when you press the Staples "Easy" button, the "viewfinder" touchscreen displays an old 16mm movie countdown ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8o0dYPfN-PM). After the pictures, if connected to a WiFi spot, the touchscreen will ask if you would like the picture(s) sent to a phone or email address, and allow you to type that in. Otherwise it asks you to insert a USB stick in the side (which a phone plugged in will look like a flash drive). I used a Pi B+ and a ESP-01 to add WiFi. If I did it again, I would use a Pi-Zero-W. -- Scott G. Hall Raleigh, NC, USA [email protected]
