Canteenautomation System using Android Application

Abstract

Nowadays technology has been used in almost every field in our present life, but still in the College canteen using traditional cash and card methods to take orders from the customer. When we are going to the college canteen for taking food, we have to wait in the queue for billing food and taking for token. But these days people do not have lots of time to spend in a queue for billing in the canteen. Many people are visiting the canteen during their break time, lunch break and leisure time So they have little time to eat and go back to particular places. Our project can provide the user with online registration on the android apps then read the food list from the e-menu card and select the item of food that the user wants to take and eat using android apps. Once the food has been selected from card E-menu then go to conformation food after that a one-time password generated on display or by a message on register mobile number.This one-time password use as a token for food. When the customer will take food from the food counter after verifying the one-time password by food supplier then the amount of food automatically debit from the customer wallet or account. By using it The cashier work will reduce through the android application and We can also say cashier's work is taking over. The main advantage of this application is if it's there a crowd in the canteen then there are opportunities the customer will be spending so much time in the queue for getting the token of the food and if cashier is not available then the user Could directly be booked and Order the meal items by using these android apps. So these android apps help them to save time to waiting in the queue and order food items whenever they want without visiting the cashier counter every now and then.
