How I build my PhotoBooth for my wedding.
Build with (and for...)
- Raspberry Pi 3
- Official touchscreen display 7"
- Official camera
- Canon Selphy CP1200
- Arm Oil
- Python & bash scripting
- 3 LEDs
- 1 push button
- Home made black painted wood box
These instructions will get you a copy of this wonderful project up and running on your RaspPi.
- Official Raspberry Pi Camera
- Official Raspberry Pi touchscreen display 7"
- Raspbian installed and working (SSH is highly recommended)
- Cups with working printer. I used a Canon Selphy CP1200 with CP900 drivers.
Clone the project
git clone https://github.com/Sn4kY/photobooth.git
cd photobooth/
Create one directory in the rootdir of your copy. It will be used to store the pictures, and the final printed render
mkdir archives/
Install some Linux Raspbian, and python specific for Raspberry Pi :
sudo apt-get install fbi python python-picamera python-gpiozero imagemagick
Wire and then enable camera (a reboot is required to enable it)
sudo raspi-config
Build the electrical circuit (see wiring diagram below)
- See the Official doc
- Beautiful pin mapping
- Red LED with 560 ohms resistor to pin 15 (GPIO 22) and ground
- Blue LED with 1K ohms resistor to pin 23 (GPIO 11) and gnd
- Green LED with 220 ohms resistor to pin 19 (GPIO 10) and gnd
(Please adjust resistor values with the need of the LED you used and the brightness you want)
- Button to pin 11 (GPIO 17) and gnd
- All GND could be wired together (or not), to any GND pin.
Create a label (1090x334 px @ 300dpi) : photobooth_label.jpg, and upload it to the "res/" directory (an example is provided)
./photobooth.py
