Would you like to keep your inventory of personal photos for one of the following areas up to date?

• Employee IDs
• Internet
• Exchange
• HR systems
• Intranet
• Passport photos for travel planning
• ActiveDirectory

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

What should be achieved?

The staff in your company have the opportunity to photograph and / or update the individual employee photo at a fixed or alternating location (e.g. in the dining room or the company canteen or HR department).
It is important that this is the case in the form of a self-service process and that additional personnel are not needed on site.
You give your teams the option to identify themselves completely around the clock with their individual employee photo.

The staff photos are automatically cut to the optimal format, removed from disruptive elements in the background and, if desired, saved in different dimensions and aspect ratios.

Our proposed solution

You position a photo box set up for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the HR department, at the ID office or at the reception in a quiet corner.
The space required is approx. 1.5 mx 1 m.
There, the employees can stand in front of the photo box, similar to a passport photo machine, and see 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 required data such as B. Personnel number, first name, family name and / or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photobox can also be programmed in such a way that the data can be read in immediately from the company ID card. The information recorded in this way is then an element of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a data protection screen with a release option for internal / external use of the recording can also be set up.

After the employee picture has been taken, the background of the picture can automatically be exchanged for one or different backgrounds you have specified. The head of each photo is also analyzed, adjusted to a specified size and positioned on the final image at a defined point.

The image is saved in a size and aspect ratio specified by you (e.g. square for the ActiveDirectory). The name of the image is used to compare the photographed image and the internal employee data record. We would be happy to help your IT department define the import interface.

A biometric check and an adaptation to a biometric ID photo are available as an option.
The image output can take place in parallel to some extent.
So you always have the best photo for
the CRM system, Instagram, WhatsApp & Co, Twitter, LinkedIn, Facebook
etc. ready.

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

BENEFITS of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• Self-made perfect staff photos in the best DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a booked photographer
• even the name of the employee can be automatically inserted into the picture without manual rework.
• Optimized throughput speed when a large number of staff are to be photographed in a small time interval
• optional data acquisition before or during the acquisition sequence
• digital branding with your background and logo.
• RAW data is also backed up if necessary
• minimal labor
• Personal photos according to your corporate design

How did the staff get the photo?

So that the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory alone does not come into possession of the new recordings, there are three different ways for staff to get their picture as a file.

1. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the recording, a code is displayed or printed on the touchscreen, which the staff can use to copy down their original photo and the different sizes for the various target systems.
2. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The photo box provides its own WLAN that the staff has to dial into.
   At the end of the sequence, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. The QR code leads to an offline gallery in which the staff can download their pictures. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only goes in the immediate vicinity of the photo box.
3. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   The captured photo is immediately sent to the employee's inbox.

Other possible uses

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

• Pictures of groups of visitors, e.g. after a lecture
• Recording of biometric passport photos and ID photos
• Use at staff parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Photo attraction at customer events & conferences
• Use at trade fairs to issue personalized “flyers”

The need for investment

The cost of buying such a perfected photo box starts at around € 4,400 plus VAT and is worthwhile for companies with around 100 employees.
Of course, there is also the possibility 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 taken over immediately.

Customer ratings

Since the system was introduced in 2019, two systems have been set up permanently in Germany and Switzerland.

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