2013.09.27
Introducing the Thermobooth, a new kind of photobooth that only snaps pics once it detects skin-to-skin contact.

The idea of the installation was cooked up by designer Talia Radford and digital media artist Jonas Bohatsch .
Subjects step behind a pastel-hued geometric forest of Osram OLED lights and onto a “smart carpet”-covered platform connected to a MaKey MaKey board. Once subjects come into contact with each other, it triggers a circuit which then initiates the shutter and flash. The image is then sent to an adjacent thermal printer to capture the impromptu pic.
