Uploading event photos

Identifying attendees in event photos

When attendees appear in event photos, a green square will be displayed around their face. This visual indicator helps them quickly locate themselves in group photos and ensures they can easily identify where they are in the image. The green square appears automatically on all matched photos.

How can attendees use the Photo match AI in the Web app.

In order to use the Photo match AI functionality on the Virtual Lobby, attendees will have to upload a profile photo with their face visible so that InEvent can recognize their facial features and match them with the available event photos.

Follow these steps to make use of Photo Match AI:

1. Navigate to My photos tab in attendee center. If attendees have a profile photo, InEvent will automatically match facial features in their profile photo with those in the event photos and display the matching ones. Attendees will be able to view them in the my photos tab in the attendee center.

1. If you have no profile picture uploaded, you'll see a prompt to take a selfie. Click the Take selfie button, grant your browser access to your camera, and capture the image. If you want to retake the picture, click Retake selfie. Once satisfied, click Done. The AI will then automatically search the event gallery for pictures in which you appear, matching them to your profile picture.

If your profile picture doesn't match any of the available event photos, you will see the message below:

Can attendees upload photos directly from the Web app?
