A flexible Photobooth software.
It supports many different camera models, the appearance can be adapted to your likings, and it runs on many different hardware setups.
This is a Python application to build your own photobooth.
- Capture a single or multiple pictures and assemble them in an m-by-n grid layout
- Live preview during countdown
- Store assembled pictures (and optionally the individual shots)
- Printing of captured pictures (via Qt printing module or pycups)
- Highly customizable via settings menu inside the graphical user interface
- Custom background for assembled pictures
- Ability to skip single pictures in the m-by-n grid (e.g., to include a logo in the background image)
- Support for external buttons and lamps via GPIO interface
- Rudimentary WebDAV upload functionality (saves pictures to WebDAV storage) and mailer feature (mails pictures to a fixed email address)
- Theming support using Qt stylesheets
- Many camera models supported, thanks to interfaces to gPhoto2, OpenCV, Raspberry Pi camera module
- Tested on Standard x86 hardware and Raspberry Pi models 1B+, 2B, 3B, and 3B+
- Flexible, modular design: Easy to add features or customize the appearance
- Multi-threaded for responsive GUI and fast processing
- Based on Python 3, Pillow, and Qt5
- Some computer/SoC that is able to run Python 3.5+ as well as any of the supported camera libraries
- Camera supported by gPhoto 2 (see compatibility list), OpenCV (e.g., most standard webcams), or a Raspberry Pi Camera Module.
- Optional: External buttons and lamps (in combination with gpiozero-compatible hardware)
See installation instructions.
Default settings are stored in defaults.cfg and can either be changed in the graphical user interface or by creating a file photobooth.cfg in the top folder and overwriting your settings there.
If you want to modify a locale file, don't forget to re-build all .mo files using python setup.py build.
This project is a fork from reuterbal/photobooth, with some custom features. Thanks a lot to him for this work released under a copyleft license.
Like the original project, the code is provided under AGPL v3.
