"Hardware-less" Photo booth usage support #10

I created this issue for all changes that need to be implemented in order to use the self-o-mat photo booth software without external hardware.

I think that using the self-o-mat software in such a minimal environment is not necessary, since an Arduino Nano (clone) only costs a few dollars and is all you need in order to gain full self-o-mat software. But I'm open for discussion.

At the moment I can think of the following features:

  • On-Screen Countdown
    At the moment, the count down time is handled by the external hardware. The photo booth software can be triggered using a mouse click but it will trigger instantly and therefore is not suitable for real-life photo booth usage. The mouse click to trigger feature was only intended to help development.
  • GPIO Button Support
    In order to trigger the photo booth without external hardware, it would be nice to allow triggering via GPIO
    GPIO pins for button #6
  • Shut Down
    Currently, the external hardware can tell the self-o-mat software to write images to usb, shut itself and the Raspberry Pi down.
