Small project to create a Photo Booth for my older brother's wedding This project was coded in python 2.7 on a raspberry pi
We used the following packages:
- pygame
- picamera
We needed the following material:
- A raspberry pi to run the interface
- A picamera
- A touch screen
- Some speakers for the sound
- A nice box where to put all this
Before running interface.py (which is the main program) you need to make sure that your onboard GPU has enough memory:
- check in
raspi config - In Advanced options -> Memory split check that you have 256 Mb
The interface built with pygame waits for the click of the user (ie the touch on the touch screen) to trigger a countdown and the picture at the end of it, A random noise is chosen among a list along a random message to give a little surprise to the persons using the device. We built a wrapper of picamera so that the interface can use it more smoothly.
Sounds and pictures are not to be used for commercial purposes
Amateur work please be kind ;)
Here is our wonderful but not perfect box for holding everything
