Classic chroma key
With a green screen behind the guest the keyer produces clean edges under even lighting – the proven solution when the backdrop is set up anyway.
Digital photo booth backgrounds: green screen or AI cut-out
A background that matches the event without building a large set every time: the Background Studio in RAWCaptureBooth separates guests from the background using classic chroma key or AI segmentation and places them in front of a digital backdrop.
Two ways to separate the guest
Both methods are configured in the admin area and can be judged directly with a reference photo.
AI cut-out without green screen
The local AI service separates person and background without any green cloth. Useful when there is no space for a green screen wall on site.
Mask preview before the event
A reference photo immediately shows how the mask turns out, so the setup can be checked before the first guest instead of during the event.
Several backgrounds to choose from
When multiple backgrounds are active, the session workflow automatically shows a selection to the guests.
AI service running locally and offline
The AI service runs as a separate service on the photo booth machine.
After setup it works locally – images never leave the machine, and operation continues when the event WiFi is unstable or no internet connection exists at all.
Availability of the service is only checked while the digital background is actually active. Several models are available for different subjects.
- Local processing without uploading to external services.
- Model selection matching the subject.
- Remaining time estimate for the calculation from the second session onwards.
Practical tips for convincing results
- Even lighting matters more than expensive equipment – for chroma key as well as for AI cut-out.
- Distance between guest and backdrop avoids shadows on the green screen.
- Choose backgrounds that match the event; calm motifs usually print better than very detailed images.
- Take a reference photo before the event and check the mask preview.
Frequently asked questions
No. Besides classic chroma key there is AI segmentation that works without any green cloth. With good lighting a green screen still delivers very clean edges.
No. After setup the AI service works locally on the photo booth machine and needs no internet connection.
Yes. As soon as several backgrounds are marked as active, a selection is shown automatically during the session.
That depends on the machine and the selected model. From the second session onwards the software shows an estimated remaining time, because the first calculation is measured as a reference.
