The use of a photo box for employee photos

The employees in your company have the opportunity to photograph and / or update the individual employee photo at a fixed location or at alternating locations (e.g. in the casino 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 needed on site.
You give your staff the option to always fully identify themselves with their personal employee photo.

The staff photos can be automatically adjusted to the optimal format, removed from disturbing elements in the background and, if desired, saved in several dimensions and aspect ratios.

One possible solution

You place a photo box set up for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the HR department, at the ID card office or at the reception in a relaxed corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5m x 1m.
There, the employees can stand in front of the photo box in a similar way to a passport photo machine and read the operating instructions for the necessary actions on the screen.

The screen serves as a touchscreen at the same time as an input terminal for the required information such as B. Employee ID, first name, family name and / or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo box can also be programmed so that the data can simply be read in from the employee ID. The information collected in this way then becomes an element of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen can also be set up with a release option for internal / external use of the employee profile.

After the photo of the employee portrait, the background of the photo can automatically be exchanged for one or many of the background settings you have specified. The head is also determined for each photo, scaled to a specified size and positioned on the final image at a defined point.

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

A biometric check and an adaptation to a biometric ID photo are available as an extra expansion stage.
The image output can take place in parallel in several forms.
So you always have the best photo for
the CRM system, LinkedIn, Outlook, WhatsApp & Co, Instagram, Twitter, XING
etc. ready.

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

ADVANTAGES of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• the employee photo box is noticeably more cost-effective than a booked photographer
• Employee portraits according to your corporate design
• digital branding with your background and logo.
• automatically created professional staff photos in maximum DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• minimal labor
• Optimized throughput speed if many employees are to be scanned in a short period of time
• even the name of the employee can be automatically inserted into the photo without manual rework.
• RAW data can also be saved on request

How does the employee get their photo?

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

1. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   The photo taken is sent directly to the employee's mailbox.
2. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the sequence, a code is displayed or printed out on the touchscreen, which the employee can use to download his or her original recording and the various versions for the different target systems.
3. Download via QR code from an offline gallery
   The photobox 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 an offline gallery from which employees can load their photos. In contrast to the online gallery, this path only goes in the immediate vicinity of the photo box.

Other deployment options

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

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

The need for investment

The cost of purchasing 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 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 offset against the subsequent purchase if the system is taken over immediately.

Customer ratings

Since the implementation of the system in 2019, two systems have been permanently installed in this country and in Switzerland.

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