In the video, Skoryna is seen approaching the machine and selecting her phone model from the on screen options. She then scans a code, chooses a photograph from her phone and uploads it directly to the machine. The selected image appears on the display, where she adjusts its size and placement before finalising the design. Moments later, the machine delivers a freshly printed phone cover featuring her chosen photo.

Take a look here at the clip:
