Snaps your portrait, prints a cocktail tailored to your taste
Pourtrait
A cocktail photobooth for events and hotels: it takes your portrait and prints a cocktail recipe tailored to your taste, for the startup Pourtrait.
LOG · WHAT IT IS AND WHAT IT DOES
Pourtrait is a booth that pairs a portrait with a drink. A guest picks their flavor preferences, like sweet, sour or spicy, and a strength from mocktail to double, then presses Capture: after a visual countdown, the camera takes their portrait and the booth prints a recipe card with the photo, a cocktail chosen for their taste and a QR code.
WHY
Very nice complexity: network management, customization, printers, imaging, and complex electronics.
WHAT I WORKED ON
The electronics and software, built with Python, Node.js and IoT, and I helped with assembly too.
WHAT CAME OF IT
I think it went out to pilot in a few events and hotels.
