Description

METHOD FOR PROVIDING RESTAURANT AUTOMATION SERVICE [0002]

The present invention relates to a method of providing a restaurant automation service.

In recent years, as the food industry has grown and become more competitive, there has been an increase in competition among companies to provide quality services, and if customers do not receive quality service in a short period of time, , Operators are struggling to provide fast and quality service.

At this time, a method of ordering a menu from a restaurant is automated. In this regard, Korean Patent No. 10-0981029 (published on Sep. 10, 2010) discloses a wireless ordering remote controller for inputting a menu number printed with a menu type and a menu number so that customers and employees can interact with the counter computer in both directions Communication is performed, and the selected menu is automatically processed without any error.

However, since this method is alarmed to all employees without any rules, it is necessary that all employees are busy to see it, or that when all the employees are waiting, they often miss the order or assign assignment to who will receive the order first , And the counter must have a task assigner like the owner. In addition, the printed wireless remote control type interface can not reflect the user's taste because the user can not make the customized order such that the employee directly receives the order.

In an embodiment of the present invention, when an order for a menu is made by interlocking an electronic menu terminal, a server for providing a restaurant automation server, a kitchen terminal, a chef terminal and an employee terminal, a load allocated to each of the chef and the employee is calculated By providing a user interface for assigning a service and a dish for an order and reflecting the taste of the user from the electronic menu terminal, the user can order a menu suitable for the user's taste without receiving an order directly, It is possible to provide a method of providing a restaurant automation service that allows the user to recognize the waiting time and the cooking process without calling the employee even when the waiting time is long. It should be understood, however, that the technical scope of the present invention is not limited to the above-described technical problems, and other technical problems may exist.

According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a method of providing a restaurant automation service, the method comprising the steps of: Receiving a location, an identification number and order menu data; Calculating a load applied to the at least one cook based on the time and number of the order menu assigned to the at least one cook terminal; Transmitting the order menu data to the chef terminal having the lowest load based on the calculated load; Mapping the order menu data and the cooker terminal and transmitting the mapped order data to be displayed on the kitchen terminal; Calculating a load applied to at least one employee terminal based on the number of serving and the number of services provided to the at least one employee terminal when the result based on image analysis of the kitchen terminal is the completion of the order menu data; Transmitting the order menu data, the location of the table and the identification number to the calculated lowest load employee terminal; Deleting the order menu data when the employee terminal is close to the table; Transmitting a screen to the at least one user terminal to check whether a problem has occurred if the at least one user terminal is located in the toilet; Transmitting data according to the type of the generated input to the at least one employee terminal when an input is generated in the transmitted screen; Transmitting a satisfaction check screen to the at least one user terminal when the at least one user terminal is out of the toilet; And transmitting the satisfaction score to a public agency server if the satisfaction score received from the at least one user terminal is greater than or equal to a predetermined score and the toilet of the restaurant is designated as a public toilet. Wherein the order menu data includes preference data of the order menu, quantity data, and amount adjustment data, and receives the position, the identification number, and order menu data of the table in which the electronic menu terminal is located from the electronic menu terminal Wherein the restaurant automation service providing server pops up a restaurant automation service screen to the at least one user terminal when at least one user terminal is detected in an area where the network of the restaurant automation service providing server is formed; Wherein the control unit controls the at least one user terminal to read an electronic chip located in a table and returns table information read by the at least one user terminal, Mapping and storing; And mapping and storing the order menu data, table information and at least one user terminal when order menu data is transmitted from the at least one user terminal. ≪ / RTI >
Wherein the at least one chef terminal and the at least one employee terminal comprise scores for a specialty or area of responsibility of the chef and employee and are assigned a task for cooking and serving the at least one menu data Assigning a task based on at least one of a position, a score, an assignment completion frequency, and an assignment completion number of the at least one cooking terminal and at least one employee terminal, To update the score.
When the call event is generated again from the electronic menu terminal in a state where the proximity signal of the at least one employee terminal is not generated after the call event is generated from the electronic menu terminal, An emergency call event to a table in which the terminal is located and transmits the emergency call event to an employee terminal located nearest to a table where the electronic menu terminal is located and allocates the call event based on the re- A penalty point may be imposed on the received employee terminal, and the discount rate for the order menu may be increased by the electronic menu terminal.
Wherein the kitchen terminal photographs food cooked by at least one chef having the at least one cooking terminal in association with the at least one cooking terminal and at least one employee terminal and transmits the food to the restaurant automation service providing server, The restaurant automation service providing server compares an order menu list given to the at least one cook terminal and the transmitted food images to check the completeness based on the similarity between the stored image templates and displays the maturity And an image or a moving image of the cooking scene can be updated and transmitted in real time.
Wherein the electronic menu terminal performs voice analysis after the order menu data is transmitted and the at least one employee terminal is close and starts recording when there is a voice for the order menu among the analyzed voice texts And may transmit the recording data to the restaurant automation service providing server so as to be mapped to the order menu data.

According to any one of the above-described tasks of the present invention, it is possible to minimize the number of employees or avoid an excessive work load on the employees, and the customer can observe the waiting time and the cooking process in real time It is possible to place an order that reflects the symbol without going through the employee, so that the order can be easily made, thereby increasing the sales and reducing the cost at the same time.
