2ECE415 Senior Design Project Fall 2008

Problem

Waiting in a restaurant is not enjoyable:• Boring

• Inefficient• Wait for table then wait for food

• Limited Interaction• Too many people around to talk private

• Reason to leave

3ECE415 Senior Design Project Fall 2008

Solution

A Two Piece System: • A client side handheld unit consisting

of:• 4.3" LCD • Touch Screen Display• Wireless capabilities• A user friendly software interface

• A server side software client:• PC based• Fulfill client handheld requests• Interact with local restaurant

network• Manage multiple users

simultaneously
