Raspberry PI MagicBox

Using a Raspberry PI and the Pi camera, some Big Push Dome buttons.

It uses only the framebuffer of the RPi (no X) to present a countdown timer before taking the picture, and if the person likes the picture it can upload it to Facebook or Twitter.

It can also add a watermark to the picture taken (small image in one of the corners) .

How does it work?

When pressing a button, a countdown starts from 3 to 1. After the countdown, a picture is taken (both Big dome push buttons blink). After the picture is taken, it is shown in the monitor and 2 options are given to the user:

* Upload to facebook and twitter
* Cancel and try again

Everything is programmed in Python3 and run without Xorg, just using the Raspberry PI Frame buffer.
