OCCO is a family of fully autonomous photographer robots designed to push the frontiers of photography experience for people at venues, attractions, events and parties. 

  • Theme park and attraction operators looking to automate some aspects of people photography. OCCO is great at replacing stationed photographers that have to capture group photos of people passing by in places such as entrances to attractions, etc.
  • Venue owners and operators (such as family event centers, restaurants, clubs) looking to add a new attraction for their guests and generate more revenue.
  • Photbooth operators looking to add a new unique offering for their customers. Robotic Photobooth commands a premium with corporate clients.

As an owner of the robot – you can customize end user access a great deal. Users can request and get their photos immediately during the party or an event. By following a trivial one-line instruction text shown on the screen, people can get photos to their mobile devices via e-mail or SMS. Users never touch OCCO or install any apps. All users need is a mobile phone with internet connectivity. Requests are fulfilled within seconds, and images that people receive can contain watermarks, promotional links, etc. OCCO will upload images to its own private online album for immediate access, and the albums can be curated for best pictures and shared with the guests later.

OCCO’s media pipeline is quite flexible and there are many options to choose from, its really up to the owner of OCCO to decide which modality to use.

Very reliable. OCCO is manufactured and tested in the USA. Each machines undergoes many hours of non-stop operational testing before it is shipped to you. We use high quality components and feel proud about the quality of our assembly process, electronics and software design. This said, everything has a life limit. In rare instances DSLRs can die and computer hard drives can develop bad sectors. Luckily, most of what can break in OCCO is not hard to swap out, and there is always help from an expert OCCO technician who will guide you through the process.

OCCO is a photographer robot. Its just different from a photobooth. Some people call it a robotic photobooth or a robot booth, or a selfie robot, but at the end of the day – if you define a photobooth as “a device that lets users have fun in front of a camera”, in our experience, nothing compares to OCCO in terms of engagement, interaction quality and just plain fun. Of course the robot can do everything that a traditional photobooth can do, but there is much more! OCCO frames and takes pictures all by itself. It senses the environment and engages users proactively.  It is fully autonomous, does not require any screens to be touched, it does not matter where and how people are positioned – as long as folks are willing to be in a picture –they will. There is no need to direct people to sit or stand in a specific spot. Even small children will be properly framed and photographed (kids absolutely LOVE playing with OCCO). But there are also deeper differences that completely change the user experience. OCCO is everyone’s personal cameraman. It creates a red carpet experience, which photobooths simply can not. OCCO is best at capturing people in their natural environment, which is one of the reasons why unlike most photobooths – OCCO shines best when facing away from the wall, not towards it. Since OCCO engages people autonomously, it does not require an attendant. Indeed, its best to make sure there is no human “in charge” of the robot. Even the most cheerful and professional attendant may create a barrier for some people to have fun.

OCCO is just different. The content it produces is still considered “user generated” media, but it has a different flavor. OCCO can capture individual portraits and groups, at much longer distances, with a much better camera and no one has a stretched hand! And of course the quality of the lighting and the images is much higher compared to what even the best phones are able to produce.

OCCO is a robot photographer. It is always cheerful, happy to work 24/7 and repeat the same task over, and over again. 200 step and repeat customers per hour? Not a problem! Crazy chase games with kids? Anytime! Since there is no person behind the camera, guests do not feel as intimidated or shy as they often do when there is a serious Pro photographer at work. People get creative, make OCCO take action shots, pose for glamour portraits, make large group portraits at different distances from the device, and simply play to their heart’s desire. 

Short answer- magic. Long answer – OCCO uses sensors that continuously scan the environment, and know where people are and what they are doing. Algorithms detect when people appear to be posing, and once all criteria for a good frame (rule of thirds, head space, etc) are satisfied – the shot is initiated.

Yes, if you attach a printer to it, or configure OCCO to send photos to another machine with a printer. This said, we really like the fully digital workflow, and many of our customers prefer that option as well.
