Gutenberg Museum

Interactive AI Selfie Station

For the Gutenberg Museum, we built an exhibit that makes history tangible: AI turns visitors into a woodcut, and they take their creation home as a print. The interface is intuitive and forgiving, built for everyday museum operation.

Idea

From selfie to woodcut

The museum wanted an exhibit that playfully connects centuries of printing tradition with modern technology and works for every age group.

Our answer: a station where you take a photo, let AI turn it into a woodcut motif in the style of historic print graphics, and print it right on site, complemented by an online gallery of the creations.

How it works for visitors

  1. 01

    Take a photo

    A friendly touch interface guides you through the capture, no staff needed.

  2. 02

    AI styling

    Within seconds, the image is translated into a woodcut motif in the style of historic print graphics.

  3. 03

    Preview & adjust

    Visitors choose a motif variant and frame.

  4. 04

    Print & gallery

    The result is printed on site and optionally added to the online gallery.

Why it works

Real AI that delivers

The styling runs fast and reliably, with no waiting that breaks the flow.

Intuitive & forgiving

A large, clear interface that needs no explanation and tolerates mistakes.

Low maintenance

Robust hardware integration and remote maintenance keep the station stable in continuous operation.
