The use of a photo box for employee photos

The employees in your company are given the opportunity to photograph and / or update the individual employee photo at a fixed or regularly changing location (e.g. in the dining room or the 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 staff the chance to always fully identify themselves with their individual employee photo.

The staff photos can be automatically adapted to the best possible format, removed from disruptive elements in the background and optionally saved in different dimensions and aspect ratios.

The solution

You position a photo box that is perfect for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the Katine, at the ID or at the entrance in a relaxed corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5 mx 1 m.
There, the employees can sit down in front of the photo box, similar to a passport photo machine, and see the operating instructions for the necessary steps on the monitor.

The monitor 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 set up so that the data can simply be read in from the company ID card. The information recorded in this way will later become part of the file name of the employee photo.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen with a release option for internal / external use of the recording can also be set up.

After the employee portrait has been taken, the background of the photo can be automatically replaced with one or more backgrounds you have specified. The head of each photo is also located, 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 that you specify (e.g. square for the ActiveDirectory). A comparison is made between the photographed portrait and the internal employee data record via the name of the picture. We would be happy to support your IT department in clarifying the connection.

A biometric check and an adaptation to a biometric ID photo are available as an extra option.
The image output can take place in different forms at the same time.
So you always have the right photo for
WhatsApp & Co, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter, Outlook, Instagram, the CRM system
etc. ready.

Of course, each file can also be “branded” with the help of the logo and / or the name and position of the employee will appear on the picture.

Special advantages of automated photo processes for reliable employee photos

• the employee photo box is significantly more cost-effective than a hired portrait photographer
• Employee photos according to your corporate design
• Automatically produced perfect staff photos in the best DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• low workload
• The name of the employee can also be automatically inserted into the picture without manual rework.
• RAW data is also backed up as required
• optimized throughput speed if many employees are to be photographed in a short period of time
• additional data acquisition before or during the recording sequence
• automatic branding with your background and logo.

How did the staff get the photo?

So that not only the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory can benefit from the new images, there are three different ways for employees to get their photos digitally.

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 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 sequence, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. That QR code leads to an offline gallery from which the employee can download his photos. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only works in the direct vicinity of the Photo Box.
3. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the photo sequence, a code is displayed or printed out on the screen, which the employee can use to download the original image and the various sizes for the various target systems.

Further deployment options

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

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

The cost frame

The price for purchasing a photobox optimized in this way starts at around € 4,400 plus VAT and pays off for companies with around 100 employees.
Of course there is also the opportunity 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 photo box is kept immediately.

Customer ratings

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.
