Then there is a photo box from Photo Booth Deluxe worth considering.

The mission goal

The employees in your company have the opportunity to create and/or update their own employee photo at a fixed location or at regularly alternating locations (e.g. in the casino or the company canteen or HR department).
It is important that this is achieved 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 personal photos are automatically cut to the best possible format, freed from disturbing elements in the background and optionally saved in different shapes and aspect ratios.

One possible solution

You can position a photo booth that is perfect for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the Katine, at the ID or at the reception in a quiet corner.
The space requirement is around 1.5mx 1m.
There, the employees can sit in front of the photo box, similar to a passport photo machine, and read the instructions for the necessary actions on the monitor.

The screen serves as a touch screen at the same time as an input terminal for the necessary information such as B. ID, name, surname and/or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo box can also be set up in such a way that the data can simply be read from the employee ID card. The data recorded in this way then subsequently becomes part of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen with a checkbox for internal/external use of the recording can also be displayed.

After photographing the employee portrait, the background of the recording can be automatically replaced with one or different backgrounds specified by you. Likewise, the head is located for each photo, adjusted to a specified size and positioned in a specified position on the final image.

The recording is saved in a size and format you specify (eg square for Active Directory). A comparison is made between the recorded image and the in-house employee data record via the file name. We would be happy to help your IT department determine the import interface.

A biometric check and an adaptation to a biometric ID photo is available as an optional extension.
The image output can take place in various sizes at the same time.
So you always have the right photo for
Twitter, the CRM system, LinkedIn, XING
etc. at hand.

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

BENEFITS of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

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

How does the staff get their photo?

So that not only the CRM system or the Active Directory can benefit from the new photos, there are three different ways for the employee to choose from to get his photo digitally as well.

1. Enter the e-mail address at the end of the photo sequence.
   The photo taken is sent directly to the employee's e-mail inbox.
2. Download from an offline gallery via QR code
   The photobooth 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 screen. The QR code leads to an offline gallery from which employees can download their recordings. In contrast to the online gallery, this path is only possible 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 the original photo and the different versions for the different target systems.

Other possible uses

To get the most out of your investment, you have the following options:

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

The cost frame

The investment for the purchase of a photobooth perfected in this way starts at around €4,400 plus VAT and pays off for companies with around 100 employees or more.
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 later purchase if the photo box is kept directly.

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 CH and at Haufe Lexware, the system is very well received by employees.
