wolfger | good morning party people | 11:15 |
brousch | wolfger: Good morning | 11:58 |
cmaloney | Good morning | 12:38 |
cmaloney | How's the morning so far? | 12:38 |
brousch | tired | 12:47 |
brousch | Was up until 1AM working on a photobooth for Grand Rapids mini Makerfaire | 12:48 |
wolfger | cool | 12:49 |
brousch | Yeah, but decided it was too ugly to use | 12:49 |
cmaloney | brousch: I wrote one for waldo's wedding | 12:54 |
cmaloney | https://github.com/craigmaloney/pygame_photobooth | 12:55 |
bookiebot | http://goo.gl/bKGx8h - craigmaloney/pygame_photobooth · GitHub | 12:55 |
cmaloney | It'll work fine on a laptop, but we had some problems getting it working on a Raspberry Pi | 12:55 |
brousch | Did it print? | 12:57 |
brousch | I was not involved with the software side this time, but the biggest problem was lack of printer drivers for Linux for the printer they chose | 12:58 |
brousch | I started work on a Kivy on RPi version, but stopped when they said the software was worked out | 12:58 |
cmaloney | brousch: WE just stored the photos, but you could set up something to do a poll in a directory and do a lpr on the photo | 12:59 |
cmaloney | and then remove the photo or archive it | 12:59 |
brousch | Using the RPi camera and a big button | 12:59 |
cmaloney | yeah, this was similar though it used an arduino for the button | 12:59 |
brousch | neat | 13:00 |
brousch | I really want one that's voice-driven | 13:00 |
cmaloney | so the arduino sent a "fire" signal down the wire, and did a little side-show blinking until the main program was ready. | 13:00 |
brousch | Actually voice activated would be bad since these are usually used at parties and such where there is a lot of noise | 13:06 |
brousch | Now I have to think of other features. Motion-activated would be easy. Maybe something to auto-adjust the camera to face-height | 13:08 |
cmaloney | brousch: The sky is, as they say, the limit. :) | 13:13 |
brousch | Did your photo booth show a live-feed from the video camera? | 13:14 |
cmaloney | Yes | 13:15 |
cmaloney | Along with some animation | 13:15 |
cmaloney | It should work with just pygame | 13:15 |
brousch | Taking the rpi cam feed and putting it into a gui is where I left off | 13:15 |
brousch | kivy | 13:15 |
cmaloney | though the variables will need some tweaking for locating the video camera | 13:15 |
brousch | I was using http://picamera.readthedocs.org/en/release-1.7/ | 13:16 |
bookiebot | http://goo.gl/DEavDm - Documentation for picamera — Picamera 1.7 documentation | 13:16 |
brousch | I admit I didn't go very far, so it may be obvious | 13:17 |

wolfger | cmaloney: my day is officially over... I just read your "tweaking" as "twerking"... | 13:26 |
wolfger | as I tabbed to this room to LOL about "call for assistance" being named as "asscall" on the system I'm working on. | 13:27 |
brousch | wolfger: Now I have an image of cmaloney twerking. Thank you very much. | 13:28 |
wolfger | brousch: you're welcome very much | 13:28 |
brousch | A mental image, which is worse than a real image because it can't be closed or thrown away | 13:28 |
brousch | I'm drinking half-caf coffee this morning instead of decaf. It always tastes better. | 13:32 |
wolfger | plus: caffeine! | 13:49 |
wolfger | but I've never heard of half-caf. Is it sold that way, or just blended? | 13:50 |
brousch | just half regular and half decaf | 13:56 |
brousch | blended, yes | 13:56 |
brousch | So I can drink my 24oz of coffee but not die of heart palpitations | 13:57 |
wolfger | Not dying is good. | 14:05 |
wolfger | Caffeine is good. | 14:05 |
wolfger | All around a good choice. :-D | 14:05 |

bookiebot | http://goo.gl/34I8j6 - In 2008, I bought a book titled “PHP 6″. Six years later, PHP version is still 5.5 : programming | 14:09 |
cmaloney | I still find this hilarious. | 14:09 |
wolfger | I think everything about bitcoin is insane. But maybe I just don't understand it? | 14:15 |
wolfger | Speaking of new versions of things that never seem to really arrive.... Perl? Enlightenment? | 14:16 |
aisrael | wolfger: ouch, two of my favorite things :( | 14:17 |
wolfger | Mine too :-( | 14:17 |
cmaloney | python is where it's all at | 14:17 |
wolfger | Hmm. Perl 6 is still vaporware, but it looks like e17 is finally actually here. | 14:19 |
aisrael | True enough, but Perl's like that friend who never gives up on you, even when you stop calling. | 14:19 |
aisrael | e17's been around for a couple years now, I think. :/ | 14:19 |
wolfger | Perl is the awesomest way to manipulate data quickly. Which is primarily the type of programming I need to do in my job. | 14:20 |
wolfger | sadly, lately, I'm stuck using vba :'( | 14:21 |
nullspace | wolfger: ahahaah vba... | 14:24 |
cmaloney | wolfger: You poor poor bastard | 14:25 |
nullspace | I have yet to do anything in vba that was fast or easy as the developer interface is pretty useless | 14:26 |
brousch | wolfger: Enlightenment released! | 14:29 |
wolfger | nullspace: developer interface? You mean, Notepad++? :-D | 14:37 |
nullspace | either or, need an IDE | 14:40 |

brousch | You can add your own metadata to the places in a nice spreadsheet-like format, add directions and lines, share the maps like Google+ sharing, and it has a nice app from Google | 15:11 |
