AR Wait Staff
Augmented reality is having a major impact in the world of computer interface design. By using the camera on a smartphone or tablet, software developers are able to employ the features of augmented reality to address real problems with dynamic and effective solutions. The advent of Apple and Android's respective AR development platforms, named ARKit and ARCore, has effectively opened up a new frontier for the widespread development and implementation of augmented reality applications, including web-based AR.
DDA is the parent company for Augmented RealiTease, and continues to lead the way in virtually all forms of digital interactive multimedia design and development. In response to the prospect of augmented reality's widespread availability, DDA created Augmented RealiTease as a full service interactive software developer with an exclusive focus on the design and development of augmented reality applications. The potential of AR has prompted Augmented RealiTease to create a number of augmented reality concepts and inspire potential clients with the wide range of possibilities.
AR Wait Staff would use augmented reality to create a platform for waitstaff to manage their customers and their orders.
Need
Busy restaurants are a challenge for the waitstaff, and an augmented reality app that would allow users to keep track of a table's orders, any special considerations and preferences, as well as wait time, would be an extremely useful application, with the potential to be developed as both a general platform and a special proprietary application for one restaurant.
Benefit
While there are many types of software devoted to restaurant management, AR Wait Staff offers the unique advantage of real-time interaction between computer data and the restaurant environment. With pricing information, time management tools, and an efficient method to provide detailed instructions, AR Wait Staff will quickly prove to be a valuable tool for restauranteurs and their wait staff worldwide.
Concept
The AR Wait Staff app will be accessed through a user's smartphone or tablet. Orders can be assigned to parties and even individual seats at the table based on numbers or symbols that the AR app recognizes on the tables in the restaurant. The general app will allow the restauranteur to populate the menu. Specific custom apps will have the menu preloaded, and the waiter will select menu items in nested hierarchical menus. Common changes such as daily specials would be listed for tap selection when selecting a menu item, with the option to provide special instructions. Graphics could also include timers to keep close track of customer wait times. In busy bar environments with shifting customers, running tabs can be updated automatically, with floating text labels associated with tagged customers.
