IoT Based Menu Ordering System

Abstract

This project is to make the restaurant menu ordering system to make environment of the restaurant good. Typically, the restaurant ordering system is provided in the form of menu cards such that the customer selects order is then taking by the waiter. So am building a touch screen- grocery order system. It displays a customer\'s groceries on available devices such as the user\'s mobile phone or her tablet, and delivers orders directly with a touch. It display the data automatically, reception, transmission, data, and analysis. It has many advantages such as ease of use, time saving, portability, reduction of human error, flexibility and providing customer feedback. Remember the customer\'s dish placed on the abandoned table. The Intelligent Automated Restaurant aims to bring all the different touch screens together to provide connectivity, Information sharing. Acceleration methods and a personal experience. We use the RFID to transmit the data through electronic menu ordering system or the touch screen display.

Introduction

I. INTRODUCTION

Internet of Things is referred to as IoT. IoT is the platform that is currently popular in the IT industry. IoT essentially represents his strategy for the modern world to support the production of digital media. The IOT world represent the boundary between the physical domain and the digital domain. Now, the IoT domain is ready to provide with a platform like wearable devices are ready for transition intelligent devices to provide intelligent services. All about IoT including smart devices, sensors and more. All of them have the unique Id. These are properly combined to build a communication network and become an object that plays an important role. This includes not only his everyday household appliances, but also items such as food, clothing, building materials, parts and assemblies. Luxury goods and services n Tourist attractions. many commerce and cultural forms. All IoT devices may be tracked, numbered, and monitored, significantly lowering waste, loss, and expenses. Future applications are introduced via the Internet of Things. It serves as the foundation for the global information society and provides resources that have been strengthened through physical and physical integration. Technology for information and communication. Today, most restaurants around the world use a personalized meal ordering system. A food order system that draws with paper and pen and uses it when taking orders from customers. In fact, the system relies on a large number of employees managing inquiries from his customers, use the restaurant ordering system to place meal orders. One of the slowest approaches is this one. If there are lots of customers in the store, that is OK. She has misunderstandings between patrons and waitstaff as a result, and the cashier is given the additional task of keeping detailed records. We introduce the Automated Restaurant Approach as a novel system to address these issues. The project's objective is to automate the restaurant management system for meal ordering and paying in order to enhance the dining experience.    

II. LITERATURE REVIEW

In India, the vast majority of eateries continue to take customer orders on paper and with a pen. An automated system that utilises wireless connectivity, a centralised database, and an Android application is suggested by this study. From the standpoint of a restaurant, the technology is cost-effective because it is automated and requires less labour(Bhaskar Kumar, Mishra, 2015). A study outlines some of the drawbacks of meal ordering methods based on paper and PDAs. suggests opening a cheap restaurant with a touch screen. management system that uses an Android smartphone or tablet as a workaround. Through Wi-Fi, the consumer tablet and kitchen display are connected to one another(Mayur D. Kakheti, Piyush C. Makar 2015). System mainly aims in designing completely automated menu system using touch screen sensors in restaurants and LCD. There is no need of a person to take the order from the customer's table. Transmission of data is through Zig-bee, a wireless technology created as a free, universal standard (Krushna A. Patil1 , Aakanksha P. Gawande2).

 In the restaurant industry, several start-ups have developed, including Box8, Zomato, and Foodpanda. With the use of technology, we want to complete important restaurant tasks more easily. The Apriori and k-means clustering algorithms are used to gain insight into the customer's behavior(R. V. Patil1, 2017).

III. PROBLEM STATEMENT

Traditional meal ordering systems are completely manual processes involving use the restaurant ordering system to place meal orders. One of the slowest approaches is this one. If there are lots of customers in the store, that is OK. She has misunderstandings between patrons and waitstaff as a result, and the cashier is given the additional task of keeping detailed records. We introduce the Automated Restaurant Approach as a novel system to address these issues. The project's objective is to automate the restaurant management system for meal ordering and paying in order to enhance the dining experience. the main problem is with the big order Ing like if the big ordering the waiter has to take the pe and paper, he can also make the mistake like mishearing the menu or the pronunciation can be a big deal in it.  for this kind of problem can make the quality of the restaurant down so this ordering system can help or lead us to make the service much better and efficient to make the customer feel better and also help the manager to keep the record of the tabling.

IV. METHODOLOGY

The system for the envisioned project is built on the RFID (radio frequency identification) module.. The web server will be where the system's flow starts. The web server serves as the graphic user interface, which securely keeps all customer data. The router and web server will be interconnected. Customers who are present in the restaurant can use the router's free internet service. The customer will thus order the food. After connecting to the restaurant's router, the user will place a phone order for food. Customers may see the restaurant's menu and place orders for the food of their choice. The restaurant's good services will be connected to the user and the router through this process.

Now that the customer's food order is available, both the chef who will prepare the customer's food and the administrator who will manage the restaurant system may see it. All of the customers' food orders will be reviewed by administration, who may manage the associated bills. Customers can add orders after placing their first orders, and administrators can check all the details of their customers' food orders. As a result, it will be present on the management screen and aid in billing. The administration of the system will benefit from RFID. will be utilised to electronically gather all of the data about the customer. As a result, the client information may be saved there. Data can be sent by analogue and digital waves using a node-mcu microcontroller in an automated restaurant management system. There are 9 pins on these microcontrollers. Only four of these nine pins will be used for data transmission, reception, and control. A microcontroller can make data sending and receiving simple.

1. It occasionally happens that consumers are ready to place their food order at a table but the servers or waiters are not present. The customer is upset and frustrated by this. The most fun aspect would be placing an order at the table, which enables individuals who are in a hurry and can't wait for their waiter to arrive to serve them. Due to the fact that this method enables consumers to purchase larger quantities from the menu, eateries find it to be quite beneficial. Even when they are busy, servers still benefit from taking orders.
2. Improvements in restaurant operations lead to significant advancements in restaurant working. It used to have a menu board at the customer table where people could order their favourite foods and beverages. The absence of a menu is required here. They can give their or der to the servers when the specific restaurant application is made available to them, or they can continue to have options for tableside services. This company's main goal is to give people more options and faster services.
3. Customers can place an order sooner with quick take-away ordering through tablet, making it simple to pick up your package. There are applications that genuinely change things, and that's where I come in. It encourages customers to order food from companies where they could earn extra money while promoting mobile ordering.
4. A clever menu There is a surge of people in the restaurant on weekends and holidays. When every server is occupied serving customers, the likelihood of serving everyone at once is very small. Long wait times for confused customers would result in a loss of business. It helps restaurants quickly satisfy customer demand, eliminating the need for servers, thanks to the use of Dmenu or eMenus.
5. Small kitchens with restaurant applications rely heavily on customer reviews or feedback for business information. Receiving notifications from users saying things like It's fantastic that "feeling felt awesome." Keeping cooks and their cooking skills consistent is one of this survey's key objectives. The application server looks for a delivery that hasn't yet been provided and is associated with the plate in line 1, and if it can't, it rejects the distribution. If the delivery receipt is found, though, an attempt is made to locate and confirm that the order matches both the table and the delivery in line 3; if it doesn't, it is refused. In actuality, only a single query with the order will suffice to complete this lookup.
