PhotoWALL is an exciting showcase of mobile devices, real-time web technology and user generated content.

Developed using Amazon and Microsoft technologies (Azure, Bing and Windows Live), PhotoWALL allows users to post images in real-time, add a VoiceTag and all of the relevant metadata comes along with it including local time, current temperature and geo-location.

Figaro Interactive partnered with AirMe to design and develop the technology that makes PhotoWALL possible. After showing Microsoft an early version of the product, they signed on as a channel partner to leverage the platform for their user generated content projects, and also to manage the advertising sales for the business.

Read a case study performed by Amazon on the project.
