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

• Outlook
• Intranet
• Employee IDs
• Exchange
• ActiveDirectory
• Internet
• Passport photos for travel planning
• the CRM

Then there is a photo box from Photo Booth Deluxe worth considering.

What should be achieved?

The field service employees in your company have the option of creating and / or updating their 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 is the case in the form of a self-service process and that additional employees are not needed on site.
You give your employees the chance to identify themselves completely around the clock with their individual employee photo.

The staff photos can be automatically cut to the appropriate format, removed from annoying elements in the background and, if desired, saved in different dimensions and aspect ratios.

A suggested solution

You place a photo box set up for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the Katine, at the ID or at the reception in a relaxed corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5m x 1m.
There the employees can sit down in front of the photo box, similar to the passport photo machine, and read the instructions for the necessary actions on the display.

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

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

The image is saved in a size and format that you specify (e.g. square for the ActiveDirectory). The name of the file is used to compare the saved portrait and the in-house employee data record. We would be happy to support your IT department in specifying the import interface.

A biometric check and a cut for a biometric ID photo are available as an extra extension.
The image output can take place in different sizes at the same time.
So you always have the right photo for
Instagram, LinkedIn, WhatsApp & Co, Facebook, Twitter
etc. at hand.

Logically, each file can also be “personalized” with the help of the company logo and / or the name and position of the employee are immediately on the picture.

Special advantages of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• low workload
• automatic branding with your motif and logo.
• perfect throughput speed if many sales representatives need to be photographed in a short period of time
• automatically produced, reliable staff photos in maximum DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• optional data acquisition before or during the acquisition sequence
• RAW data is also saved as required
• Sales representatives take photographs according to their corporate design
• even the name of the person photographed can be digitally inserted into the picture without manual rework.
• the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a rented portrait photographer

How does the employee get the photo?

So that not only the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory can benefit from the new photos, there are three different ways for field staff to receive their photos digitally.

1. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   Then the captured photo is immediately sent to the employee's mailbox.
2. Download from an offline gallery via QR code
   The Photo Box provides its own WLAN which the sales representative has to dial into.
   At the end of the sequence, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. The QR code leads to the offline gallery from which the sales representative can copy his pictures. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only goes in the direct vicinity of the photo box.
3. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the photo sequence, a code is displayed or printed on the screen, which the sales representative can use to copy down his or her original photo and the various versions for the different target systems.

Alternative uses

In order to get the most out of your investment, you have the following possible uses:

• Production of biometric passport photos and ID photos
• Photo attraction at customer events & meetings
• Use at trade fairs to produce personalized “flyers”
• Photos of groups of visitors, for example after a presentation
• Employee photos (as already explained)

The need for investment

The cost of buying such a perfected photo box starts at around € 4,400 plus VAT and is worthwhile for companies with around 100 employees.
Of course, there is also the chance to test the system in advance on a rental basis for € 650 + € 1 / employee photo plus VAT per week.
1/2 of the rent will be credited to the later purchase if the photo box is taken over immediately.

references

Since the system was introduced in 2019, two photo boxes have been permanently installed in Germany and Switzerland.

Both at WWZ AG in CH and at Haufe Lexware, the system is very well received by employees.
