The use of a photo box for employee photos

The employees in your company have the opportunity to photograph and / or update the individual employee photo at a fixed location or at a location that changes periodically (e.g. in the casino 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 employees are not needed on site.
You give your teams the chance to identify themselves at any time to 100% with their own employee photo.

The staff photos are automatically cut to the optimal format, freed from disturbing elements in the background and optionally saved in some formats and aspect ratios.

The solution

You position a photo box perfect 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. 1.5m x 1m.
There, the employees can stand in front of the photo box, similar to a passport photo machine, and read the operating instructions for the necessary actions on the display.

The monitor serves as a touch screen at the same time as an input terminal for the required data such as B. Employee ID, first name, last name and / or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photobox can also be set up so that the data can be read directly from the employee ID card. The information recorded in this way then becomes part of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen with a checkbox for internal / external use of the recording can also be displayed.

After the employee picture has been taken, the background of the picture can automatically be exchanged for one or different backgrounds you have specified. The head is also determined for each photo, adjusted to a specified size and positioned at a specified location on the final image.

The image is saved in a size and format that you specify (e.g. square for the ActiveDirectory). The file name is used to compare the captured image and the internal employee data record. We would be happy to help your IT department specify the connection.

A biometric check and a cut for a biometric ID photo are available as an extra extension.
The image output can take place synchronously in different dimensions.
So you always have the perfect photo for
Instagram, WhatsApp & Co, the CRM system, Outlook, LinkedIn, Facebook, Twitter, XING
etc. lying ready.

Of course, each file can also be “branded” with a company logo and / or the name and position of the employee are immediately visible on the picture.

Advantages of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• even the name of the employee can be automatically inserted into the picture without manual rework.
• minimal labor
• optional data acquisition before or during the acquisition sequence
• the employee photo box is significantly cheaper than a rented photographer
• Company photos according to your corporate design
• RAW data is also backed up as required
• digital branding with your motif and logo.

How does the employee get the photo?

So that the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory alone does not come into possession of the new photos, there are three different ways for employees to get their picture digitally.

1. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   In this case, the captured photo is sent directly to the employee's mailbox.
2. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The photo box provides a private WLAN which the employee has to dial into.
   At the end of the photo sequence, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. This QR code leads to the offline gallery in which employees can save their recordings. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only works in the immediate vicinity of the photo box.
3. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the sequence, a code is displayed or printed on the touchscreen, which the employee can use to download his or her original recording and the various sizes for the various target systems.

The need for investment

Of course, there is also the opportunity 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 offset against the subsequent purchase if the photo box is bought directly.
