A photo booth extracts visitors in real time
An interactive in-store installation streams live video across two large vertical touchscreens.
The project
OPPO deployed two interactive photo kiosks as a retail activation in two high-traffic Parisian stores. The installation needed to deliver live video background removal and maintain continuous operation even during network outages. The setup combines a large-format touchscreen, a capture smartphone, and local real-time chromakey processing. Both kiosks operated autonomously without interruption or loss of analytics during Internet disruptions.

The challenge
The technical challenge was threefold: cleanly cutting out silhouettes in real time against a blue background, enabling smartphones and screens to communicate without latency, and above all ensuring the continuous operation of the photobooth despite an often unstable public network in the shopping arcade.
The approach
The visitor strikes a pose in front of a brand smartphone. A dedicated mobile application captures the video feed and transmits it instantly to a large-format touchscreen. There, a local script applies a live chromakey cutout on a blue background to embed the subject into the selected backdrop. The user validates their photo directly on the touch kiosk. Behind the scenes, a web back-office centralizes the shots and orchestrates their distribution. To handle live contingencies, we integrated inactivity rules, network control via OSC, and local data storage in case of disconnection.
