Can you always keep your stock of employee pictures up to date for one of the following areas?

• Internet
• the CRM
• ActiveDirectory
• Intranet
• Passport photos for travel planning
• Business Cards

Then there is a photo box from Photo Booth Deluxe worth a moment of your time.

What should be achieved?

The employees in your company have the opportunity to photograph and/or update their own employee photo at a fixed location or at a rotating location (e.g. in the dining room or 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 opportunity to fully identify themselves at any time with their own employee photo.

The staff photos are automatically cut to the right format, freed from annoying elements in the background and optionally saved in different sizes and aspect ratios.

One possible solution

You position a photo box perfect for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the human resources department, at the ID office or at the entrance in a quiet corner.
The space required is approx. 1.5 mx 1 m.
There, the employees can sit in front of the photo box and see the instructions for the necessary actions on the screen, just like with the photo booth.

The monitor serves as a touchscreen at the same time as an input terminal for the necessary information such as B. Employee ID, first name, family name and / or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo box can also be configured in such a way that the data is read in immediately from the employee ID card. The data recorded in this way is then a component of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen with a confirmation option for internal / external use of the employee report can also be displayed.

After photographing the employee portrait, the background of the photo can be automatically replaced with one or many backgrounds specified by you. The head is also located 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 format specified by you (eg square for Active Directory). A comparison between the photographed portrait and the internal employee data record takes place via the file name. We would be happy to support your IT department in defining the interface.

A biometric check and an adaptation to a biometric ID photo is available as an optional extension.
The image output can take place synchronously in different formats.
So you always have the right photo for
WhatsApp & Co, Twitter, XING, LinkedIn, Instagram
etc. ready.

Logically, each file can also be "branded" with company logos and/or the name and position of the employee will be visible on the image.

ADVANTAGES of automatic photo processes for professional employee photos

• Employee images according to your corporate design
• the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a booked portrait photographer
• perfect throughput speed when many workers are to be photographed in a short period of time
• additional data acquisition before or during the recording sequence
• Automatically produced perfect staff photos in the highest DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• RAW data is also saved as required
• minimized work time
• digital branding with your background and logo.
• even the name of the person photographed can be digitally inserted into the picture without manual rework.

How does the photographed person get the photo?

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

1. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   Then the captured photo will be sent to the employee's email address right away.
2. Download from an offline gallery via QR code
   The photobooth provides a private WLAN that the employee has to dial into.
   At the end of the recording, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. This QR code leads to an offline gallery from which the employee can load his pictures. In contrast to the online gallery, this way only works in the immediate vicinity of the photo box.
3. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the recording, a code is displayed on the screen or printed out, which the employee can use to download his original photo and the various formats for the various target systems.

Other possible uses

In order to make the best possible use of your investment, you have the following options:

• Use at employee parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Production of biometric passport photos and ID photos
• Employee photos (as already explained)
• Use at trade fairs to create personalized "flyers"
• Photos of groups of visitors, e.g. after a lecture

The need for investment

The price for the purchase of a photo box perfected in this way starts at around €4,400 plus VAT and is therefore worthwhile for companies with around 100 employees or more.
Of course, there is also the possibility to try out 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 system is kept directly.

references

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

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