The mission goal

The employees in your company have the chance to take their personal employee photo and / or bring it up to date at a fixed or regularly changing location (e.g. in the dining room or the company canteen or HR department).
It is essential that this is achieved in the form of a self-service process and that additional personnel are not required on site.
You give your employees the chance to identify themselves completely at any time with their personal employee photo.

The staff photos can be automatically cut to the best possible format, removed from disruptive elements in the background and, if desired, saved in several formats and aspect ratios.

A suggested solution

You can place a photo booth optimized for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the Katine, at the ID card or at the reception in a relaxed corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5 mx 1 m.
There the employees will sit down in front of the photo box in the same way as with a passport photo machine and read the instructions for the necessary steps on the screen.

The monitor serves as a touch screen in parallel as an input terminal for the necessary information such as B. Personnel number, 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 employee ID. The data collected in this way then becomes an element of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a data protection screen with a confirmation option for internal / external use of the image can also be displayed.

After the photo of the employee's picture has been taken, the background of the picture can be automatically exchanged for one or various backgrounds you have specified. The head is also determined for each photo, adjusted to a specified size and placed in a specified position on the final image.

The image is saved in a size and aspect ratio defined by you (eg square for the ActiveDirectory). The file name is used to compare the saved image with the internal employee data record. We would be happy to support your IT department in determining the connection.

A biometric check and a cut to a biometric ID photo are available as additional extensions.
The image output can take place in parallel in different dimensions.
So you always have the ideal photo for
Instagram, Outlook, Facebook, LinkedIn, the CRM system, XING, Twitter
etc. lying ready.

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

Special advantages of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• The name of the employee can also be automatically added to the photo without manual rework.
• RAW data can also be saved on request
• Company photos according to your corporate design

• automatic branding with your background and logo.
• optional data acquisition before or during the acquisition sequence
• the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a rented photographer

How does the employee get the picture?

So that the CRM system or the ActiveDirectory alone does not benefit from the new images, employees can choose between three different ways to get their image digitally.

1. Enter the email 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 online gallery
   At the end of the sequence, a code is displayed or printed out on the screen, which the employee can use to download his or her original photo and the various formats for the various target systems.
3. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The photo box provides a private WLAN that the employee has to dial into.
   At the end of the recording, a QR code is displayed on the screen. The QR code leads to the offline gallery from which employees can copy their recordings. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only works in the direct vicinity of the photo box.

Additional uses

In order to get the most out of your investment, you have the following options:

• Recordings of groups of visitors, e.g. after a tour of the company
• Recording of biometric passport photos and ID photos
• Use at trade fairs to issue personalized “flyers”
• Employee photos (as described above)
• Use at company parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Photo attraction at customer events & meetings

The cost frame

The cost of buying a photobox adapted 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 try out the system in advance 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.

recommendations

Since the system was implemented in 2019, two systems have been permanently installed in Germany and Zurich.

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