Inspiration
I wanted a platform that incentivizes going outside and taking photos. This also helps with people who want to build a portfolio in photography
What it does
Every morning, a random photography prompt will appear on the app/website. The users will be able to then go out and take a photo of said prompt. The photo will be objectively rated upon focus quality, which is basically asking if the subject is in focus, plus if there is any apparent motion blur. The photo will also be rated upon correct exposure (lighting). They will be marked out of 100, using interesting code to determine the scores. We would also like to implement a leaderboard of best photos taken of said subject.
How we built it
Bunch of python, and little bit of HTML. The future holds react coding to make everything run and look much better.
Challenges we ran into
everything.
Accomplishments that we're proud of
Managed to get a decent scoring method for both categories, which had pretty fair outcomes. Also I got to learn a lot about flask.
What we learned
A lot of fun flask information, and how to connect backend with frontend.
What's next for PictureDay
Many things mentioned above, such as:
- Leaderboard
- Photo gallery/portfolio
- pretty website
- social aspects such as adding friends.
