Project Description:

The Autonomous Restaurant Service Robot for Food Delivery is an advanced, AI-driven robotic system designed to streamline restaurant operations by transporting meals from the kitchen to customers’ tables safely, efficiently, and reliably. Engineered for modern smart-hospitality environments, this robot integrates cutting-edge navigation, sensing, and human–machine interaction technologies to function seamlessly within dynamic restaurant spaces populated by customers, staff, and obstacles.The robot follows a predefined black line path using infrared (IR) sensors. It uses ultrasonic sensors to detect obstacles such as people or chairs and pauses until the path is clear. The kitchen staff presses a button to choose the table number, and the robot starts its journey. On reaching the destination (based on distance or line junction counting), the robot alerts the customer using a buzzer or LED. After the customer picks up the food, it returns to the starting point automatically.This simplified restaurant service robot offers a reliable and low-cost solution for automated food delivery within restaurants. With basic sensors and omni-wheels, it ensures safe and smooth movement, improving both service efficiency and customer satisfaction. It's a great starting point for future restaurant automation.
