Can you always keep your stock of employee photos for one of the following areas up to date?

• Internet
• Exchange
• HR systems
• Time cards
• ActiveDirectory
• Outlook
• Employee IDs

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

What should be achieved?

The employees in your company have the opportunity to photograph and/or update their own employee photo at a fixed location or at locations that change on a regular basis (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 employees are not needed on site.
You give your staff the opportunity to always identify 100% with their own employee photo.

The personal photos can be automatically cut to the best possible format, removed from annoying elements in the background and optionally saved in several dimensions and aspect ratios.

A suggested solution

You position a photo box optimized for employee photos in your company (e.g. in the HR department, at the ID or at the entrance 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 the passport photo machine and see the instructions for the necessary actions on the touchscreen.

The screen serves as a touchscreen in parallel as an input terminal for the required data such as e.g. B. Employee 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 be read immediately from the company ID card. The employee data recorded in this way is then later part of the file name of the employee photo taken.
Optionally, a data protection screen with a release option for internal / external use of the employee report can also be displayed.

After the photograph of the employee picture has been taken, the background of the recording can be automatically replaced with one or several backgrounds specified by you. Likewise, the head of each photo is analyzed, 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 you specify (eg square for Active Directory). The file name is used to compare the portrait taken with the internal employee data record. We would be happy to help your IT department clarify 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 various dimensions at the same time.
So you always have the right photo for
XING, WhatsApp & Co, Instagram, the CRM system, Outlook, Twitter
etc. lying ready.

Of course, each file can also be "personalized" with company logos and/or the name and position of the employee will be immediately included in the picture.

Advantages of automated photo processes for professional employee photos

• optional branding with your background and logo.
• Employee photos according to your corporate design
• additional data acquisition before or during the recording sequence
• RAW data can also be saved on request
• Automatically produced perfect staff photos in maximum DSLR quality and studio flash technology
• optimized throughput speed if many employees are to be photographed in a small period of time
• even the name of the employee can be automatically inserted into the photo without manual rework.
• the employee photo box is noticeably cheaper than a booked portrait photographer

How does the photographed person get the photo?

So that not only the CRM system or the Active Directory comes into possession of the new pictures, there are three different ways for the employee to choose to also receive their picture as a file.

1. Download from an online gallery
   At the end of the photo sequence, a code is displayed or printed on the touchscreen, which the employee can use to download their original photo and the different sizes for the different target systems.
2. Enter the email address at the end of the photo sequence.
   The photo taken is immediately sent to the employee's e-mail inbox.
3. 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 recording, a QR code is displayed on the screen. The QR code leads to an offline gallery where employees can download their recordings. In contrast to the online gallery, this way only works in the immediate vicinity of the photo box.

Other deployment options

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

• Employee photos (as already described)
• Use at trade fairs to create personalized “flyers”
• Use at employee parties (summer party, Christmas party ...}
• Recordings of groups of visitors, e.g. after a tour
• Photo attraction at customer events & congresses
• Production of biometric passport photos and ID photos

The cost frame

The price for the purchase of a photo box optimized in this way starts at around €4,400 plus VAT and is therefore worthwhile for companies with around 100 employees or more.
Of course there is also the possibility 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 later purchase if the system is purchased immediately.

recommendations

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

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