What is PaN?
PaN is a new service that allows visitors to share pre-installed cameras arranged at tourist destinations, amusement parks, and event venues to take their own souvenir photos. This service has been brought to life by the combination of Panasonic's photo-shooting technology and NTT Communications' cloud-network technology. The photographs are stored automatically online in the cloud and can be downloaded easily to a user's computer or smartphone.
Summary of Demonstration
Using photo vouchers distributed at the entrance of Kenninji and Entokuin temples, visitors can take selfies using PaN cameras arranged at various photo spots on the grounds. One card gives access to all cameras within a temple. Visitors can purchase prints and/or data of their photographs before they leave.
Key Features of the Event
1. The demonstration includes DNP's photo print system so that
photographs shot with the PaN cameras will not only be stored in the
cloud but may also be printed at the temples as mementos.
2. This
service allows visitors to take unique photographs not typically
available. For example, certain photo spots feature special camera
angles on the temple grounds, and one spot offers a composite image
using a green screen for an added experience.
3. Organizing this
demonstration at Kenninji and Entokuin temples simultaneously will
direct people from one temple to the other to enhance their sightseeing
experience.

Data (*1): 600 yen per photo spot
