Project Description
Restfe Calling System
The Idea is to make Calling system for restaurants and cafes that able guest to request (Waiter, Menu or Bill).
Problem
When we are in a busy resaturant or cafe we face a litlle problem to call for waiter, menu or the bill to leave and that due to the lack of focussing from waiter or for being bussy place with shortage in staff.
Why i care ??
I need to increase service level in restarant/cafes and also to smooth client time during their visits.
Inspiration
I saw this device in movie and i decided to make it.
The Idea is to build a calling system to be installed in restaurant on each table to make guests able to request one of three things (MENU, WAITER or BILL) without need to shout or make signals with hand or make sounds.
we will build a orders sending unit to be installed on each table and it will be with 3 buttons with different functions.
we will build Receiving Unit with screen to show staff what is the table request and which.
