From a quick photo
to a portrait drawn in pen.
At a Robo Portraits station, our attendant takes a quick photo of your guest at the tablet, the guest chooses a portrait style and watches a robot draw it in pen on a Robo Portraits card (6 × 4 inch, 300 gsm). Our attendant helps guests through the process. Each portrait takes about 1.5 to 2.5 minutes, depending on the style. For event planning, use approximately 22 portraits per robot-hour.

From the photo to the finished drawing, here’s what each guest does.
Take
a photo.
The guest steps up to the tablet and our attendant takes a quick photo. On-screen prompts show the portrait styles. There’s no app to download and no form to fill out.
- Guided on-screen prompts, with our attendant on hand for anyone who wants help.
- Guests choose a style: a realistic line portrait or a caricature, in a simple or detailed version.
- Our attendant runs the station, so your team doesn’t need to.
Watch the pen
move.
The robot draws the portrait with a real pen, line by line, in plain view. Not on a screen: a pen on card, right in front of the guest and anyone nearby.
- Easy to watch: guests can see the drawing take shape from the start.
- About 1 minute of drawing for the simple style and about 2 minutes for the detailed style.
- Plan for approximately 22 portraits per robot-hour. Actual drawing speed varies with portrait style and event conditions. Up to 3 robots at one event.
Take your
drawing home.
Each guest drawn during your booked time takes home the original drawing, made by the robot just for them.
- Drawn in pen on a Robo Portraits card (6 × 4 inch, 300 gsm). It’s a drawing, not a print.
- Digital copies are an optional extra (price on request, arranged before the event).
- Custom cards: every portrait is drawn on a Robo Portraits card, and custom cards with your design are available as an add-on.
Start to finish.
About 1.5 to 2.5 minutes.
Two styles.
Guests choose.
Each guest picks a style at the tablet: realistic or caricature, each in a simple or detailed version.
A clean line portrait that aims for a close likeness. Choose the simple version for speed or the detailed version for finer line work.
A playful caricature that exaggerates features, often with a fun body or scene. Also available in simple and detailed versions.
Sample portraits. Full body, group and pet portraits are available too.
