What should be achieved?
The employees in your company have the opportunity to create and/or update their own employee photo at a fixed location or at a rotating location (e.g. in the casino or the company canteen or human resources department).
It is important that this is achieved in the form of a self-service process and that you do not need extra employees on site.
This gives your workforce the option to fully identify themselves at any time with their own employee photo.
The personal photos are automatically cut to the best format, freed from annoying elements in the background and, if desired, saved in many dimensions and aspect ratios.
One possible solution
You position a photo box perfect for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the personnel department, at the ID office or at the reception in a quiet corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5m x 1m.
There, the employees can sit in front of the photo box in a similar way to a passport photo machine and read the instructions for the necessary steps on the touchscreen.
The screen serves as a touch screen in parallel as an input terminal for the required information such as e.g. B. Personnel number, first name, last name and/or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo box can also be configured so that the data can be read directly from the employee ID card. The data collected in this way then subsequently becomes part of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen can also be displayed with a confirmation option for internal / external use of the employee profile.
After the photograph of the employee picture has been taken, the background of the photo can be automatically exchanged for one or several backgrounds specified by you. The head is also determined for each photo, scaled to a specified size and positioned at a defined position on the final image.
The image is saved in a size and aspect ratio you specify (eg square for Active Directory). A comparison between the saved photo and the internal employee data record takes place via the file name. We would be happy to help your IT department determine the interface.
A biometric check and an adaptation to a biometric ID photo are available as additional extensions.
The image output can take place synchronously in several dimensions.
So you always have the right photo for
Outlook, Instagram, the CRM system, LinkedIn, WhatsApp & Co, Facebook, XING, Twitter
etc. within easy reach.
Of course, each file can also be “personalized” with company logos and/or the employee's name and position can be directly visible on the image.
Advantages of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

- minimized work time
- The name of the employee can also be automatically inserted into the photo without manual rework.
- Employee pictures according to your corporate design
- additional data acquisition before or during the recording sequence
- the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a booked portrait photographer
- RAW data are also saved on request
- perfect throughput speed when many employees need to be photographed in a short time frame

How do the staff get their picture?
To ensure that the CRM system or Active Directory alone does not get hold of the new photos, there are three different ways for employees to get their photo digitally.
- Download from an online gallery
At the end of the recording, a code is displayed or printed on the touchscreen, which the employee can use to download the original photo and the various versions for the various target systems. - Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
In this case, the captured photo is sent immediately to the employee's mailbox. - Download from an offline gallery via QR code
The photo box provides its own WLAN, which the company employees must dial into.
At the end of the sequence, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. That QR code leads to the offline gallery where employees can copy their photos. In contrast to the online gallery, this path is only possible in the immediate vicinity of the photo booth.
Other possible uses
In order to make the best possible use of your investment, you have the following options:
- Photos of groups of visitors, e.g. after a guided tour
- Use at company parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
- Employee photos (as explained above)
- Recording of biometric passport photos and ID photos
- Photo attraction at customer events & congresses
The cost frame
The investment for the purchase of such an optimized photo booth starts at approx. 4,400 € plus VAT and is worthwhile for companies with around 100 employees.
Of course, there is also the option to test 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 immediately.
Customer ratings
Since the implementation of the system in 2019, two photo boxes have been permanently installed in Germany and Switzerland.
Both at WWZ AG in Switzerland and at Haufe Lexware, the system has met with great approval from colleagues.
