The Pankraz Piktographis an automated robotic arm that acts as an unconventional photo booth. It uses automated robotics to translate photographs into portrait sketches. The device takes inspiration from old photo booths like Maillardet's automaton from the 1800s that used robotics to perform automatic sketches of people standing before the machine.
The Felix Fisgus design studio collaborated with Joris Wegner, a multimedia artist, and product designer, to create their own robotic automated sketch booth. The self-contained portrait drawing robot is ideal for events like science exhibits, fairs, and museums. It works with the press of a handheld remote button. The Pankraz Piktograph snaps photos of its users and transforms them into delicately sketched pencil portraits for a unique piece of art.
