003 | EyeFood | outcomes
outcomes
- The system recognizes dishes on a tray within 1-2 seconds
- The average time between the first and the last stages is 20-30 seconds – compare it to an average cashier that needs around 50 seconds to serve a customer. Due to a big number of people who come to this place, such a difference in speed of order processing is critical and fundamentally important.
Customers are serviced faster, which saves their lunch time.
Increasing the speed of order processing has a positive effect on the average check indicator – the faster visitors receive their orders, the more guests can be served and the more often they return to this canteen.
