> I am excited that Fireshot customers can begin to auto-curate their photos from their inner circle of friends and colleagues using Fireshot's zero-touch solution. This is made scalable and efficient thanks to Genymotion Android environments. > > Geoff Hughes, Regional Director at Fireshot Pte. Ltd.
The Challenge
- Fireshot users' photos are lost among thousands in devices and online storage platforms.
- Fotobot customers using Fireshot are too busy to store their photos.
- Fotobot customers using Fireshot are too busy to neatly arrange photo albums.
- Fireshot needed zero-touch curation.
- Zero-touch curation must control and provide secure access for photo sharing and streaming the photos into digital photoframes.
- There is no easy way to integrate WhatsApp photos into a photoframe.
- Customers share many photos that are not saved or stored.
- Providing a service to do this needs to scale and render high graphic images across multiple devices.
The Solution
- Fotobot uses Genymotion on AWS EC2 and Graviton.
- Fotobot automates storing each customer's photos from their WhatsApp groups to Google Photos, daily.
- Customers can also use this solution to stream auto-curated content to digital photoframes with zero-touch.
Outcomes
- Privacy is paramount.
- Google login allows permission only to create two albums—Portrait and Landscape—for saving photos.
- This ensures that power users can test the Fireshot service without any risk to their precious family or enterprise albums.
What does it look like?
- Inside Genymotion, Fireshot runs a series of applications to stream the content from WhatsApp.
- The result is a zero-touch stream from Genymotion to Google Photos.
- Photos arrive in Google Photos a few moments after being delivered on WhatsApp.
- The stream continues on an hourly basis, arriving on the digital frame.
What’s next?
Scale
- Thanks to Genymotion on AWS we can apply our technology at scale.
