The use of a photo box for employee photos

The employees in your company have the opportunity to photograph and/or update their personal employee photo at a fixed or periodically changing location (e.g. in the casino or the company canteen or human resources department).
It is important that this takes place in the form of a self-service process and that additional employees are not needed on site.
You give your teams the opportunity to identify themselves completely around the clock with their individual employee photo.

The personal photos are automatically adjusted to the best format, freed from disturbing elements in the background and optionally saved in different shapes and aspect ratios.

A suggested solution

You place a photo box perfect 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 will stand in front of the photo box, similar to a passport photo machine, and read the operating instructions for the necessary actions on the monitor.

The monitor serves as a touch screen in parallel as an input terminal for the required data such as e.g. B. Employee identifier, first name, last name and/or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo box can also be programmed in such a way that the data is read in immediately from the employee ID card. The information recorded in this way will later become part of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen can also be presented with a confirmation option for internal/external use of the photo.

After photographing the employee portrait, the background of the recording can be automatically replaced with one or several backgrounds specified by you. The head of each photo is also analyzed, scaled to a specified size and placed in a specified position on the final image.

The image is saved in a size and aspect ratio specified by you (eg square for Active Directory). A comparison is made between the saved image and the internal employee data record via the name of the file. We would be happy to help your IT department define the interface.

A biometric check and a cut to a biometric ID photo are available as an additional expansion stage.
The image output can happen in several forms at the same time.
So you always have the ideal photo for
LinkedIn, Outlook, Instagram, XING, WhatsApp & Co, Twitter
etc. lying ready.

Of course, each file can also be “personalized” with the company logo and/or the employee's name and position can appear on the image.

ADVANTAGES of automated photo processes for reliable employee photos

• Independently made reliable staff photos in best DSLR quality and studio lighting technology
• Employee recordings according to your corporate design
• automatic branding with your motif and logo.
• minimal labor
• the employee photo box is significantly cheaper than a rented portrait photographer
• optimized throughput speed when many employees have to be photographed in a short period of time
• extra data acquisition before or during the recording sequence
• RAW data can also be saved on request
• even the name of the person photographed can be automatically inserted into the picture without manual rework.

How does the employee get the picture?

So that not only the CRM system or the Active Directory gets the benefit of the new pictures, there are three different ways for the employee to get his picture as a file.

1. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the photo sequence, a code is displayed or printed on the touchscreen, which the employee can use to copy his original photo and the different versions for the different target systems.
2. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The photo box provides its own WLAN which the employee has to dial into.
   At the end of the photo sequence, a QR code is displayed on the screen. That QR code leads to the offline gallery where the employee can download his photos. In contrast to the online gallery, this path is only in the immediate vicinity of the photo box.
3. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   The photo taken is immediately sent to the employee's mailbox.

Alternative uses

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

• Use at trade fairs to create personalized “flyers”
• Pictures of groups of visitors, e.g. after a tour
• Employee photos (as explained above)
• Photo attraction at customer events & congresses
• Use at employee parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Creation of biometric passport photos and ID photos

The need for investment

The cost of purchasing a photo box perfected in this way starts at around €4,400 plus VAT and pays off for companies with around 100 employees or more.
Of course, there is also the chance to try out 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 subsequent purchase if the system is purchased immediately.

references

Since the implementation of the system in 2019, two systems have been set up permanently in this country and in Zurich.

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