Photobooth Assembly Diagram

Kit of Parts

The Photobooth is ready to be fabricated.  Our assembly team at Merge will receive a kit-of-parts of digitally cut components ready to be formed and welded, a 1/4 scale model and some diagrams… not one dimensioned drawing!  Metalab has designed and authored the parts for this innovative and mobile Photobooth.  Our clients at BSP will transport and install this at weddings and other occasions for quick, high quality photos printed on the spot.  The wheels will be integrated into the box with removable handles so the unit can be easily moved onto the thick ballast plate from the truck/crate.

Photobooth models

We are testing the accuracy of unrolled surfaces extracted from Rhino.  Grasshopper is used to generate the perforations on the surface of the Photobooth.   The perforation pattern becomes random and dissipates as they move away from the curved region of the surface in one version.  The holes relieve the material resistance to bending along the radius defined by the adjacent part.  The front panel will hinge open to access the printer, camera, CPU and lighting inside.
