CLOUD BASED DYNAMIC SMART ORDERING

SYSTEM IN RESTAURANT

Automation is taking place in every aspect of our lives. This system fulfills the
purpose of automation and dynamic smart ordering of the restaurant system. This project
involves developing a prototype for customer self-ordering system in restaurants. Ordering is
a process of the customers specifying what they want, so that the order can be recorded in a
computer system followed by passing it to the relevant department for processing and finally
the delivery of services or products to the customers based on the order. There will be a
digital touch screen menu card. Customer can put their orders with the help of it. This ordered
will be sent through cloud to the kitchen where it will be displayed on a host computer and a
lcd display visible to chefs in kitchen. After completion of order the bill will be printed and
payment can be made through card or cash.

Self-ordering system cuts down the manpower for taking the order from the customer
thus increase in profit of the restaurant system. Also it eliminates the waiting time to wait for
a waiter to take order. Change of menu and price alteration on the menu card can be done
easily with the help of digital menu card. Status of the item ordered can be known when
asked. Personal preference of food item of regular customer can be determined. Suggestion of
next item according to previous order can be determined. The whole system will be cloud
based. Thus it will be completely wireless.
