Holographic Booth

Guests pick a virtual character, watch it walk on, and a countdown takes the shot. AI builds the group photo to scan or print on the spot. Character clips, backgrounds and layouts are managed in the PepeFoto platform and reach the booth on its next sync.

¥5,999≈ $840 Perpetual holographic booth software licence per terminal (no annual fee), hardware not included. Booth and custom content are quoted per project.

The booth in 74 seconds

On site, on the booth and in the PepeFoto platform, in one pass.

Event footage is real. UI data and the AI photo are demo content; the walk-on and AI waiting screens are shortened.

Five steps to a hologram photo

Five screens that guests can run on their own.

1StartTap start on the home screen.
2Pick a characterSwipe the cards and tap the one in the middle. Each card is a set: character clip, background and frame.
3Countdown shotThe character walks on first, then the live view opens; a countdown (1–30 s) takes the shot, and retakes are allowed.
4AI group photoThe shot goes through the AI workflow bound to that set's layout; the progress bar ends with the finished photo.
5Scan or printScan to keep a digital copy, or choose copies and print. Scan-only works too.

Busy venue? Express flow can skip the selection screen, start the countdown automatically and send each shot straight to AI.

Change content in the back office

Each character is a set of content plus a layout. In the PepeFoto platform you pick layouts in the app template (the order you tick them is the order of the sets), then swap character clips, backgrounds and frames in the holographic booth editor and hit Save. Booths on that template pick up the new content on their next sync.

Software licence

¥5,999≈ $840

The holographic booth software is a perpetual per-terminal licence with no annual fee, hardware not included; after that only AI credits (by usage) and the album service (yearly) are billed. The booth, custom characters and on-site operation are quoted per project; the formal quote governs.

How it differs

Why pick it

  • The character walks on before the shot: each card is a set of character clip, background and frame.
  • Fast enough for queues: express flow comes in several set-ups, from fully automatic after Start to tapping the shutter yourself and going straight to AI.
  • New event, same booth: content is changed and published in the PepeFoto platform, and the booth picks it up at its next idle sync.
  • Landscape or portrait photos: each photo orientation has its own five-screen set, so choose the one your event needs.

Compared with

  • vsPro

    Both take a photo and produce an AI image. The holographic booth software adds the booth experience: guests pick a character card and pose once it has walked on. Pro adds AI video, custom style training and AR holographic photos; the last is a Pro feature, not the holographic booth software.

Not for, or watch out

  • Venues without internet: AI photos and online QR codes need a connection, and a local original shown offline is not an AI result.
  • Editing content at the booth: the platform admin sets it up and publishes it, and the booth only syncs, while idle.
  • Expecting artwork text to translate: the language setting changes the interface only, not text inside your artwork.

Where it fits

  • Brand events and contests where guests pose with a brand mascot or a custom character.
  • Digital-only events: the result screen shows just the QR code, and guests scan to keep the photo.
  • Events where guests want a print: they choose copies and leave with the photo in hand.
  • Mixed-language events: the interface switches between Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese and English.

How it runs on site

  1. Sign in and activate

    Sign in with the account from your admin, activate the booth licence and give the admin the device code.

  2. Set up content

    In the PepeFoto platform, the admin picks layouts, adds character clips, backgrounds and frames, and assigns them to this booth.

  3. Sync the event

    When the booth is back on the home screen and free, sync the event resources and run one test round.

  4. Test the hardware

    Test only the camera or webcam you use; if you print, test the printer too, which uses paper.

  5. Set the flow

    Set the countdown, the idle time before returning home and the interface language, and switch on express flow when it gets busy.

  6. Guests play

    Guests pick a character, pose and confirm, then scan or print once the AI photo is ready; the booth returns home for the next guest.

What guests get

  • An AI photo with the character

    The guest and their chosen character in one picture, composed by AI in that set's layout.

  • A digital copy by QR

    Once the photo and a working QR code appear, guests scan to save it.

  • A print on the spot

    Choose copies and print, then wait for the paper; the booth can also be set to QR only.

  • A fallback if AI fails

    With the failure option on, a failed or timed-out photo offers a retry or carrying on with the original.

Every feature

  • Sync activity resources and configure devices
  • Test cameras, webcams and printers
  • Character choice, walk-on clip, capture, AI generation, and delivery by QR or print
  • Configure automatic capture and streamlined workflows

Guides and questions

Help-centre guides

Common questions

Yes. Keep just the QR code on the result screen and switch printing off, and no printer is needed. Automatic AI submission never prints by itself either.
With the failure option on, the result screen shows the failure and offers a retry or carrying on with the original photo; a retry may use credits again.
AI photos and online QR codes need a connection. A local original that appears while offline is not an AI result and has no online QR code.
Not at the booth: the admin updates and publishes it in the PepeFoto platform, and staff run a sync once the booth is back on the home screen and free; a session in progress is never interrupted.
