This camera take a photo when the switch is pressed, and print the photo from its thermalprinter. I want to make it so that it is usable in parties or events.
There are some projects. printsnap/ Electronic Instant Camera/ 8-Bit Instant Camera
In some projects, image was converted into an ASCII art. ascii art camera/
I want to add a letter or a figure to image in the future.
My plan as follow,
Exterior:Plywood or cardbord:¥500, and felt:¥100.
componets:ATmega328p:$2,jpeg camera module:$40,thermal printer:$50,SD Card:$15
I'll get wood and fabric at DIY stores.I'll use some electronic parts in the lab, which is required to buy wanting parts on the web.

-The most difficult task for me is JPEG decording. The thermalprinter can print only BMP format.
-It needs to program interface between each module, and data conversion . I have never used all of modules.
-It is necessary to change a plan if I couldn't understand image transformation algorithm. (then I'll make digital lottery...)
-Which AVR should I use ?
-Which is better, use computer for image processing or make stand-alone gadget ?
