The use of a photo box for employee photos

The employees in your company have the opportunity to take a photo of their personal employee photo and/or update it at a fixed location or at a location that changes on a regular basis (e.g. in the dining room or company canteen or HR department).
It is important 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 identify themselves to 100% at any time with their own employee photo.

The staff photos can be independently adapted to the appropriate format, removed from annoying elements in the background and optionally saved in many sizes and aspect ratios.

One possible solution

You position a photo booth optimized for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the HR department, at the ID or at the reception in a quiet corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5m x 1m.
There, the employees can stand in front of the photo box and see the operating instructions for the necessary actions on the touchscreen, as with the passport photo machine.

The screen serves as a touch screen at the same time as an input terminal for the required information such as B. ID, 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 company ID card. The information recorded in this way then becomes part of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a data protection screen can also be set up with a release option for internal / external use of the image.

After photographing the employee portrait, the background of the photo can be automatically exchanged for one or many backgrounds specified by you. Likewise, the head of each photo is analyzed, scaled to a specified size and placed in a specified position on the final image.

The image is saved in a size and format you define (eg square for Active Directory). The name of the picture is used to compare the picture taken and the internal employee data record. We would be happy to support your IT department in specifying the import interface.

A biometric check and an adaptation to a biometric ID photo is available as an optional extension.
The image can be output in many sizes at the same time.
So you always have the best possible photo for
Outlook, the CRM system, Instagram, Twitter
etc. ready.

Logically, each file can also be “branded” with logos and/or the employee's name and position will also be visible on the image.

Advantages of automatic photo processes for perfect employee photos

• Extra data acquisition before or during the recording sequence
• Employee portraits according to your corporate design
• the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a rented portrait photographer
• digital branding with your background and logo.
• RAW data are also saved on request
• even the name of the employee can be automatically inserted into the picture without manual rework.
• perfect throughput speed when many workers are to be photographed in a short period of time

How does the employee get their photo?

So that it is not just the CRM system or ActiveDirectory that gets the benefit of the new photos, there are three different ways for the employee to choose from to get his photo digitally as well.

1. Download from an offline gallery via QR code
   The photo box provides its own WLAN that the employee has to dial into.
   At the end of the photo sequence, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. That QR code leads to the offline gallery from which the employee can download his photos. In contrast to the online gallery, this way only works in the immediate vicinity of the photo box.
2. 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 different formats for the various target systems.
3. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   Then the captured photo is sent directly to the employee's mailbox.

Other deployment options

In order to make optimal use of the investment, you have the following options:

• Employee photos (as already explained)
• Recordings of groups of visitors, e.g. after a lecture
• Use at employee parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Use at trade fairs to produce personalized “flyers”
• Creation of biometric passport photos and ID photos

The cost frame

The investment for the purchase of a photo box adapted 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 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 subsequent purchase if the system is purchased immediately.

recommendations

Since the system was introduced in 2019, two photo boxes 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 well received by employees.
