Overview

Basically a photobooth just like at the mall, but with a maker's charm.

Features

  • Initially shows video of the individuals in the booth to let them position accordingly.
  • Large button to hit when you're ready.
    • Has to be durable.
  • Countdown video before the computer driving it snaps the photo.
  • Takes between four and six pictures with a three second timer between pictures.
  • Automatically uploads the pictures online for everyone to see.
    • Possibly without the users knowing. More fun that way ;).
  • Must use as little power as possible to obtain it's function.
    • Solid state storage only.
    • Fanless if possible.
    • Wifi on demand(ie. not always connected).
  • Remote administration is a must.

Other options

  • Autodetection and mounting of thumbdrives so the booth can load the pictures onto it.
  • Cheap print of the pictures.
    • Not sure how to accomplish this yet.
  • Making the whole thing modular so it can be taken down and setup other places rather easily.
