UI for viewing the last taken picture of a connected camera and give the possibility to print it.

[JRS_1986]

Hi,

I have my wedding in two weeks and I want to set up a photo booth. I have the setup done but now I am thinking of a small interface.
I want to connect a PC or Mac to the camera (Nikon D550) and the printer (Polaroid PoGo). Every time a picture is recorded with the camera, the full screen UI should show this picture full screen (just show the newest picture in a specified folder).
There should basically only be one big button flowing over the image that says “print” which will then send the picture to the PoGo printer.

As I am no big programmer, is there anyone willing to help me with this? Would be really awesome :D

Thank you so much,
JRS

Hey,

I just made a little research and what I found so far:

Watch for an added file with QFileSystemWatcher::directoryChanged and printing with QPrinter.
I will now try to use those classes and see how far I can get.

I then want to show the file that just has been added to the directory with QImage and QLabel.

Is there a better way to do this?
The button should then be a QPushButton with set alpha value.

I will give it a try :)

Thank for any comment :P

Best,
JRS
