Uploading event photos

Using the Photo match AI functionality in the Virtual Lobby

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.

Attendees can upload their profile photo from the My Account tab in the Attendee Center.

When attendees go to My Photos tab, InEvent will automatically match the facial features in their profile photo with those in the event photos and display the matching ones.

If the Event Photos tab is enabled, attendees can also browse through all event photos from the My Photos tab by clicking on Event Photos.

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.

It's important to note that once you've taken a selfie, it automatically becomes your profile picture.
