The use of a photo box for employee photos
The employees in your company have the opportunity to create and/or update the individual employee photo at a fixed location or at periodically alternating locations (e.g. in the casino or the company canteen or human resources department).
It is important that this is achieved 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 identify themselves 100% with their personal employee photo.
The personal photos are automatically cropped to the ideal format, removed from disturbing elements in the background and optionally saved in many dimensions and aspect ratios.
A suggested solution
You position a photobooth set up for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the HR department, at the ID card or at the reception in a quiet corner.
The space requirement is approx. 1.5m x 1m.
There, the employees will sit in front of the photo box, similar to the photo booth, and read the instructions for the necessary actions on the monitor.
The monitor serves as a touch screen in parallel as an input terminal for the necessary information such as e.g. B. Personnel identifier, first name, last name and/or date of birth.
Alternatively, the photo booth can also be programmed in such a way that the data is immediately read from the employee ID card. The information recorded in this way then becomes part of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a disclaimer screen with a confirmation option for internal/external use of the image can also be set up.
After the employee photo has been photographed, the background of the image can be automatically replaced with one or more backgrounds specified by you. The head is also located for each photo, scaled to a specified size and placed in a specified location on the final image.
The photo is saved in a size and format specified by you (eg square for Active Directory). The name of the file is used to compare the portrait taken with 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 happen in parallel in many sizes.
So you always have the ideal photo for
Twitter, WhatsApp & Co, Outlook, XING, Facebook, the CRM system, Instagram, LinkedIn
etc. within easy reach.
Of course, each file can also be “branded” with logos and/or the employee's name and position can be immediately visible on the image.
Special advantages of automatic photo processes for professional employee photos

How does the employee get the picture?
So that not only the CRM system or the Active Directory can enjoy the new photos, there are three different ways for the employee to choose from to get his photo as a file.
- Download from an online gallery
At the end of the sequence, a code is displayed on the screen or printed out, which the employee can use to download his original recording and the various sizes for the different target systems. - Entry of the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
The captured photo is immediately sent to the employee's email address. - Download via QR code from an offline gallery
The Photo Box provides its own WLAN which the employee has to dial into.
At the end of the sequence, a QR code is displayed on the touchscreen. This QR code leads to the offline gallery where the employee can copy his photos. In contrast to the online gallery, this path is only possible in the immediate vicinity of the photo booth.
Additional deployment options
In order to get the most out of your investment, you have the following options:
- Employee photos (as already explained)
- Photo attraction at customer events & meetings
- Photos of groups of visitors, e.g. after a lecture
- Recording of biometric passport photos and ID photos
- Use at trade fairs to issue personalized “flyers”
The cost frame
The price for purchasing a photo box adapted in this way starts at around €4,400 plus VAT and is already worthwhile for companies with around 100 employees or more.
Of course, there is also the chance 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 system is retained.
