Description

ELECTRONIC SYSTEM OF DYNAMIC COUPLING BETWEEN FOOD AND DRINK
FIELD OF APPLICATION
The present invention relates to an electronic system for dynamic food and drink coupling.
In particular, the invention relates to an electronic system for dynamic food 5 and drink coupling, in which a personal electronic device obtains by means of an electronic-digital identifier information which is related to food and drink menus, and the following description refers to this field of application to simplify its presentation.
PRIOR ART
0 In a restaurant, in particular in big restaurants structured to provide a plurality of different dishes related to different cultures and backgrounds, it is considered important to identify the flavour components of a food in order to understand what to enhance and what to compensate with a wine. It is known that a good wine and food pairing makes a meal pleasant and exalts5 the goodness of the prepared dishes. Conversely, an unbalanced food and wine pairing can spoil the impression and pleasure of a meal.
Unfortunately, the waiter assigned to a table often does not have sufficient knowledge in terms of pairings, or has knowledge limited to food-drink pairings relating to limited geographic areas/types of foods-drinks.
0 To fill this gap, the waiter may improvise a pairing or choose to consult with a colleague before recommending one.
In both cases, the choice of pairing to propose is not optimal because it is spoiled by partial incompetence and/or inefficiency.
An excellent choice would require that the waiter constantly stays up-to-date5 about possible food-drink pairings.
This requires unsustainable time and costs, representing a non-viable solution; therefore an inefficiency remains in the service provided by the restaurant. A general object of the present invention is to overcome the known drawbacks.
An object of the invention is to provide an electronic system for dynamic food and drink coupling that is optimized in terms of execution efficiency. A specific object of the invention is to provide an electronic system for autonomous and dynamic food and drink coupling, making the intervention of ad hoc support staff unnecessary.
A further specific object is to provide an electronic system for autonomous and dynamic food and drink coupling able to autonomously produce different pairings which are actually available at a restaurant.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
These and other objects are achieved by an electronic system for dynamic food and drink coupling as claimed in claim 1.
Advantageous aspects are disclosed in dependent claims 2 to 9.
These and other objects are achieved by a restaurant adapted to interface with the electronic system for dynamic food and drink coupling.
The invention as described allows providing an electronic system for autonomous and dynamic food and drink coupling, obtaining the following technical effects:
- optimization in terms of execution efficiency for a clear advantage for the consumer; in particular:
freedom from interventions of ad hoc support staff
extreme reduction of the time required to obtain the coupling.
The technical effects/advantages mentioned, and other technical effects/advantages of the invention, will emerge in further detail from the description provided herein below of an example of embodiment provided by way of approximate and non-limiting example with reference to the appended drawings.
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Figure 1 is a general view of the system according to the invention.
Figures 2, 3 and 4 are detailed views of components of figure 1. Figure 5 shows a detail of an artificial intelligence system provided in the system according to the invention.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION
In a first aspect, the invention describes an electronic system for dynamic food and drink coupling.
With reference to figure 1 , the system according to the invention comprises an electronic-digital identifier 1 , associated with a menu M; a restaurant server R_SERV, in which each individual restaurant R is associated with a plurality of the menus M; a food and drink coupling unit 200 comprising a food and drink coupling database 100 in turn comprising food and drink couplings CFD; a distributed network of tasters 3 to transmit to the database 100 real-time updates / variations ACFD on the food-drink couplings CFD; a personal electronic device 2 configured to request a food-drink coupling CFD from the food and drink coupling database 100.
With particular reference to figure 2, every menu M comprises representative menu information INF_M, comprising a plurality of individual items IT_MF;IT_MD representing individual foods and/or drinks.
With particular reference to figure 2, the electronic-digital identifier 1 , associated with the menu M, comprises a menu identifier M_ID for the menu M, and a restaurant identifier R_ID and where the menu M can be served. Preferably, the menu identifier M_ID comprises one among an NFC tag, a QR Code, a code in a text field present on a webpage, and a notification link received from a proximity system.
In particular, the menu identifier M_ID comprises an NFC tag that can be placed on a paper menu, table tent, counter, etc.
Alternatively, the menu identifier M_ID comprises a QR Code, which can also be positioned like the NFC tag.
Usually NFC tags and QR Codes are prepared on a similar medium, in particular a label. The QR code is printed or the NFC tag is embedded on this label.
Alternatively, the menu identifier M_ID comprises a code (alphanumeric string) in a text field present on a webpage.
Alternatively, the menu identifier M_ID comprises a notification link received from a proximity system.
With particular reference to figure 3, the restaurant server R_SERV comprises data of individual restaurants R, wherein each restaurant R is identified by the restaurant identifier R_ID and wherein each individual restaurant R is associated with a plurality of menus M.
With particular reference to figure 4, the food and drink coupling unit 200 is in data communication with the restaurant server R_SERV.
According to the invention, the food and drink coupling database 100 comprises food and drink couplings CFD defined as a function of at least a first coupling item Acd 1 and at least a second individual coupling item Acc21 .
The food and drink coupling database 100 is comprised in the food and drink coupling unit 200.
Alternatively, the food and drink coupling database 100 is connected to the food and drink coupling unit 200.
The first coupling item Acc1 1 can either represent foods that must be coupled with one or more drinks, or drinks that must be coupled with one or more foods.
In particular, the first coupling item Acd 1 is individual, for example a food, and the second coupling item Acc21 is an individual drink, in particular a wine to accompany the food.
Furthermore, the food and drink coupling database 100 comprises food and drink couplings CFD further defined as a function of at least a further coupling item Acc12,Acc22.
The foods and drinks are contained in two separate databases, respectively indicated with DB_F and DB_D.
The food and drink coupling database 100 comprises food and drink couplings CFD defined according to a plurality of criteria described in the following description and dynamically updated by a plurality of expert tasters according to these criteria.
With particular reference to figure 1 , the system according to the invention comprises the distributed network of tasters 3, wherein the tasters are food/drink pairing professionals.
The distributed network of tasters 3 is in data connection with the food and drink coupling database 100.
According to the invention, the distributed network of tasters 3 comprises a plurality of taster devices 31 in which every taster device 31 is configured to transmit to the food and drink coupling database 100 real-time updates / variations ACFD on food-drink couplings CFD.
According to the invention, the updates / variations ACFD are defined as a function of at least new drinks NVi drinks and/or new foods NCi.
The technical effect achieved is a dynamic food and drink coupling F_CFD in the food and drink coupling database 100.
In one preferred embodiment of the invention, each taster device 31 is further configured to transmit to the food and drink coupling database 100 real-time updates / variations ACFD of the food-drink couplings CFD as a function of the organoleptic characteristics of both the food, and of the wine. Normally there are two general principles that apply in food/wine pairings, namely concordance and contrast. This means that certain organoleptic sensations of the food, in order to be correctly paired with a wine, will be associated with equivalent organoleptic sensations of the wine, while others will be countered by specific opposing organoleptic characteristics of the wine.
Preferably, in addition every taster device 31 is further configured to transmit to the food and drink coupling database 100 real-time updates / variations ACFD on the food-drink couplings CFD as a function of one or more of local customs and tradition or meteorological season, thereby further specifying said dynamic food and drink coupling function F_CFD.
The coupling according to local customs and tradition considers the consolidated culinary habits of an area that leverage historical and cultural reasons. In this case history and tradition prevail and guide the coupling, as has been handed down from generation to generation.
The coupling according to the meteorological season is based on the seasonal availability of certain foods and certain wines, whose availability is somewhat limited to a range of a few weeks in a year.
In one embodiment of the invention, the dynamic food and drink coupling function F_CFD is based on an artificial intelligence system Sys_AI.
The selected menu item IT_MF, IT_MD is 'transmitted' to the artificial intelligence system according to the type: food or drink.
3 artificial intelligence systems are provided, each made expert on a type of drink: wine, beer or water.
As the diner gradually selects the items IT_MF, IT_MD, the items are sent to the artificial intelligence system according to type. The system provides advice, suggesting pairings.
The artificial intelligence systems manage the organoleptic characteristics of the drinks - wine, beer or water - and any specific dissonant aspects.
In particular, the artificial intelligence system Sys_AI will use a pairing based on the principles of concordance and contrast in the evaluation of beverages, food and their harmony.
It provides the population of corresponding databases of drinks DB_D_AI and foods DB_F_AI comprising at least a multiplicity TH of elements with respect to the conventional databases DB_D and DB_F such as to consider the databases of drinks DB_D_AI and foods DB_F_AI as "big data".
The value TH of elements is, therefore, a threshold value for the system of the invention, beyond which the calculation of the couplings can be performed by the artificial intelligence system Sys_AI.
A corresponding food and drink coupling database 100_AI - comprising the associations between the drinks DB_D_AI and foods databases DB_F_AI - will also be considered "big data".
The system of the invention, therefore, verifies the pairing with the drinks and foods and, if the multiplicity TH of elements has been reached, activates the artificial intelligence system Sys_AI, otherwise the coupling is carried out on a mathematical-statistical basis, as previously described.
If the value TH of elements has been attained the artificial intelligence system Sys_AI calculates the values to enter in the food and drink coupling database 100_AI that contains statistically similar associations among drinks - in particular wines - and foods by giving each drink and food an associative map to which a value from 1 to N is assigned according to the greater affinity of the specific drink to preset parameters for drinks.
