Project Summary

Nowadays, service robots are very popular in robot family. Service Robots have been widely used in many fields. We are designing a restaurant service robot. This restaurant service robot can transfer dishes in the restaurant. This robot could be capable of serving food to the required table of the customer in the restaurant. This robot is based on the characteristics of a wheeled robot. The final positioning accuracy of the robot would be 10cm from the table. It is autonomous, has a higher payload, and is able to travel and dock at the target table.

Our objective is to implement this restaurant service robot in the restaurant. This robot will facilitate the customers. It’s a wheeled base robot that will travel on the pre-defined path to the required table. The position of the robot can be determined and path planning can be done. Preliminary tests show that autonomous navigation is achieved, and the robot is able to dock at a

Target table and roll out the serving tray. With this robot, an android based mobile application will be beneficial for the restaurant owners. Customers would not wait for the waiter to come to his table, they can simply place their order through the app and the robot will bring their food to their table.

Project Objectives

1. Our objective is to implement this restaurant service robot in the restaurant. 
2. To solve the problems of restaurant owners (Shortage of waiters and their affordability)
3. To design a mobile application for taking orders in the restaurant.
4. To design an application which will be beneficial for restaurant owner and customers.

Project Implementation Method

It is an android-based application, which will be developed using Android studio having JSON, java, PHP. Moreover, it will be developed using FDD (Feature-driven development) where requirements divided into multiple standalone modules of the software development cycle.

In which first we will build an overall model then build a feature list and then we will plan, design, and develop by feature. The project is only implemented to make the mobile apps so it might take time to open because of synchronizing database with the internet on hardware. The internet connection is also a constraint for the application. Since the application fetches data from the database over the internet, it is crucial that there is an internet connection for the application to function.  

Benefits of the Project

This is going to be a complete working autonomous restaurant service robot and android based mobile application. The customer will log in to the application and then see the menu on the app and add things into cart and order, the order will go into the kitchen the chef will note down it and give them preparation time and start preparing their food, and lately, it will be served through the robot. This project will facilitate the customers by taking orders through application and providing food on their table in a restaurant. Also, provide comfort to the restaurant owner and staff. The robot will save the expenses of the owner and will attract customers.

Technical Details of Final Deliverable

It is a complete Arduino base programmed hardware system. The final delivery of the project would be a working restaurant service robot. It will serve the customers.

It’s a wheeled base robot that will travel on the pre-defined path to the required table. The position of the robot can be determined and path planning can be done. Preliminary tests show that autonomous navigation is achieved, and the robot is able to dock at a

Target table and roll out the serving tray. . This robot is based on the characteristics of a wheeled robot. The final positioning accuracy of the robot would be 10cm from the table. It is autonomous, has a higher payload, and is able to travel and dock at the target table. and when some object came on its way they integrated sensors will sense it and a message would be displayed on its screen and it will make a noise so the object will move away or the robot will take another path. With this robot, an android based mobile application will be beneficial for the restaurant owners.
