Imagine watching a familiar face appear as a sketch, line by line, while the person in the portrait waits to see the finished result. At a party, that small moment of anticipation can be entertaining for the person being drawn and the friends gathered around to watch.

Zoom Photobooth brings this artistic interaction to weddings, parties, corporate events, and brand activations through its Zoom Art Bot, also known as the Sketch Robot. Guests take a photograph, watch the robot create a personalized sketch using artificial intelligence (AI) technology, and receive physical and digital artwork to keep or share.

Watch the Zoom Art Bot Create Your Portrait

The experience begins with a photograph taken at the booth. The Zoom Art Bot then uses AI technology to create a sketch based on the guest’s image, turning a familiar photo booth activity into something that unfolds in front of them.

Each sketch is designed to be completed within 60 seconds, keeping the artistic process short enough to fit into a social gathering. Guests get to enjoy the creation of their portraits as well as the finished results.

The robot adds an element of surprise because each participant becomes the subject of the artwork. A guest who has watched a friend receive a sketch can step up for a personalized portrait of their own.

Make the Artistic Process Part of the Party

A creative attraction gives guests something to do together between conversations, food, and other activities. The Sketch Robot offers an easy starting point: someone takes a photograph, and the people nearby can watch the artwork develop.

At a birthday party, friends might gather around the guest of honor to see the finished portrait. Later, smaller groups can take their turns and compare the sketches they receive.

The interaction creates opportunities for conversation without requiring everyone to participate at once. Guests can enjoy the robot’s work while waiting for their own portraits or watching someone they know become the next subject.
