Would you like to keep your stock of field staff photographs for one of the following areas up to date?

• Passport photos for travel planning
• HR systems
• ActiveDirectory
• Intranet
• Business Cards
• Outlook

Then a photo booth is from Photo Booth Deluxe worth considering.

The mission goal

The field service employees in your company have the option of creating and / or updating the individual employee photo at a fixed or regularly changing location (e.g. in the dining room or the company canteen or HR department).
It is essential that this takes place in the form of a self-service process and that additional personnel are not needed on site.
You give your teams the option to fully identify themselves at any time with their own employee photo.

The staff photos are automatically cut to the optimal format, freed from disturbing elements in the background and, if desired, saved in different shapes and aspect ratios.

A suggested solution

You position a photo box set up for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the HR department, at the ID card office or at the reception in a relaxed corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5 mx 1 m.
There, the employees can stand in front of the photo box, similar to a passport photo machine, and read the instructions for the necessary actions on the monitor.

The screen serves as a touchscreen at the same time as an input terminal for the necessary information such as B. Employee ID, first name, last name and / or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo box can also be set up in such a way that the data can be read in immediately from the company ID card. The data collected in this way then becomes part of the filename of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a data protection screen with a release option for internal / external use of the image can also be displayed.

Following the recording of the employee picture, the background of the recording can be automatically exchanged for one or more backgrounds you have specified. The head is also determined for each photo, scaled to a specified size and positioned at a specified location on the final image.

The recording is saved in a size and aspect ratio specified by you (e.g. square for the ActiveDirectory). The name of the file is used to compare the saved photo and the internal employee data record. We would be happy to support your IT department in defining the interface.

A biometric check and a cut to a biometric ID photo are available as an optional expansion stage.
The image output can take place in different forms at the same time.
So you always have the right photo for
WhatsApp & Co, Twitter, Instagram, Outlook, Facebook
etc. within easy reach.

Of course, each file can also be “personalized” with logos and / or the name and position of the employee can also be on the picture.

Special advantages of automatic photo processes for professional employee photos

• Optimized throughput speed when many sales representatives have to be photographed in a short time frame
• low workload
• automatic branding with your motif and logo.
• the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a rented photographer
• Independently made professional staff photos in maximum DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• RAW data can also be saved on request
• even the name of the employee can be automatically added to the photo without manual rework.
• Sales representatives take photographs according to their corporate design
• optional data acquisition before or during the acquisition sequence

How does the employee get his photo?

So that the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory alone does not get the new photos, the sales representative can choose between three different ways to get his photo digitally.

1. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The photobooth provides its own WLAN that the sales representative has to dial into.
   At the end of the sequence, a QR code is displayed on the screen. The QR code leads to the offline gallery from which the sales representative can download his recordings. In contrast to the online gallery, this way only works in the immediate vicinity of the Photo Box.
2. Entry of the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   The photo taken is sent directly to the employee's mailbox.
3. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the recording, a code is displayed or printed on the touchscreen, which the sales representative can use to copy down the original recording and the different formats for the various target systems.

Other deployment options

To make the most of your investment, you have the following options:

• Photos of groups of visitors, for example after a tour of the company
• Use at sales force parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Use at trade fairs to create personalized “flyers”
• Photo attraction at customer events & meetings
• Employee photos (as already explained)

The cost frame

The investment for buying a photo box optimized in this way starts at around € 4,400 plus VAT and pays off for companies with around 100 employees.
Of course, there is also the opportunity to test the system beforehand on a rental basis for € 650 + € 1 / employee photo plus VAT per week.
1/2 of the rent will be credited to the subsequent purchase if the photo box is taken over immediately.

recommendations

Since the introduction of the system in 2019, two photo boxes have been permanently installed in this country and in Switzerland.

Both at WWZ AG in Zurich and at Haufe Lexware, the system is very popular with employees.
