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

• Internet
• the CRM
• Credit cards
• HR systems
• Passport photos for travel planning
• Intranet
• Outlook

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 the individual employee photo at a fixed or periodically alternating location (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 you do not need additional staff on site.
You give your employees the option to always fully identify themselves with their personal employee photo.

The staff photos can be automatically optimized to the ideal format, removed from annoying elements in the background and optionally saved in some dimensions and aspect ratios.

One possible solution

You place a photo booth optimized for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the HR department, at the ID card office or at the reception in a quiet corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5m x 1m.
There, the employees can sit down in front of the photo box, similar to a passport photo machine, and read the operating instructions for the necessary actions 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. Personal identification, first name, family name and / or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo box can also be programmed in such a way that the data can be read directly from the employee ID card. The information recorded in this way then becomes a component of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen with a checkbox for internal / external use of the image can also be displayed.

After the photograph of the employee portrait, the background of the picture can be automatically replaced with one or more backrounds specified by you. The head of each photo is also found, 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 between the recorded portrait and the in-house employee data set takes place via the file name. We would be happy to support your IT department in clarifying the import interface.

A biometric check and a cut to a biometric ID photo are available as additional extensions.
The image output can take place at the same time in different dimensions.
So you always have the best possible photo for
Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, the CRM system, Outlook, XING, WhatsApp & Co, LinkedIn
etc. within easy reach.

Logically, each file can also be “personalized” with a company logo and / or the name and position of the employee are immediately shown on the picture.

Advantages of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• Employee portraits according to your corporate design
• Independently made professional staff photos in the highest DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a rented portrait photographer
• optimized throughput speed if many employees are to be photographed in a small period of time
• optional data acquisition before or during the acquisition sequence
• minimized work time
• RAW data is also backed up as required
• even the name of the employee can be automatically inserted into the photo without manual rework.
• automatic branding with your motif and logo.

How does the photographed person get the picture?

So that the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory alone does not come into possession of the new photos, there are three different ways for the employee to receive his photo 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.
2. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the sequence, a code is displayed or printed on the screen, which the employee can use to download his or her original recording and the various sizes for the various target systems.
3. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The Photobox provides a private WLAN which the employee has to dial into.
   At the end of the recording, a QR code is displayed on the screen. That QR code leads to the offline gallery in which the employee can save his photos. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only works in the direct vicinity of the Photo Box.

Additional deployment options

In order to make the best possible use of the acquisition, you have the following possible uses:

• Creation of biometric passport photos and ID photos
• Photo attraction at customer events & meetings
• Use at trade fairs to produce personalized “flyers”
• Pictures of groups of visitors, e.g. after a presentation
• Employee photos (as explained above)
• Use at employee parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}

The cost frame

The cost of purchasing a photo box optimized in this way starts at around € 4,400 plus VAT and is worthwhile for companies with around 100 employees.
Of course, there is also the opportunity 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 offset against the subsequent purchase if the photo box is purchased immediately.

references

Since the implementation of the system in 2019, two photo boxes have been permanently installed in this country and in Zurich.

Both at WWZ AG in Switzerland and at Haufe Lexware, the system is very well received by employees.
