Case Study: 15th National Games of China boosts fan engagement with AKOOL AI Photo Booth

15th National Games of China launches AI photo booths across six venues with AKOOL

The 15th National Games of China sought to transform passive spectators into active participants and demonstrate national leadership in AI innovation. The organizers faced the challenge of increasing on-site audience engagement with a solution that was instantly usable by all visitors, capable of real-time processing, and reliable across multiple high-traffic venues. They partnered with vendor AKOOL and its AI Photo Booth service to address this.

AKOOL deployed its AI Photo Booths across six major venues, allowing attendees to instantly generate personalized "athlete transformation" images. The solution became one of the busiest attractions at the Games, drawing long queues and producing thousands of souvenir photos daily. It successfully turned fans into participants, created a powerful emotional connection, and validated AKOOL's capability to deliver high-throughput, real-time generative AI systems at a national scale.
