Sawant Nidhi Kalidas Miss.Raikar Ankita Tanaji Abstract Traditional method that is commonly been used in hotels is by taking the customer s orders and writing it down on a piece of paper. Many solutions have been proposed for solving this issue. This Project is again one attempt in the same direction. In this paper we discuss the automation for food ordering system. This system makes use of Bluetooth as a communication device and TFT LCD touch plus display module compatible with Arduino Mega 2560 as hardware. Keywords: Arduino Mega 2560, TFT touch plus LCD display module, Bluetooth communication I. INTRODUCTION Traditional method that is used commonly in hotels is by taking the customer s orders and writing it down on a piece of paper and then giving the order in the kitchen section.the food ordering system is proposed with the use of a handheld device placed on each table which is used to make an order at the restaurant. The system uses a TFT touch plus LCD display module which is placed on each customers table for them to make orders. Order is made by selecting the items displayed on LCD. The order will be sent from the customer section using Bluetooth communication, and automatically will be displayed on a screen at the kitchen. The bill will be displayed with table number at the manager/billing section. The project will reduce the time spent on making the orders and paying the bills, whereby the cost and man power also can be reduced. II. COMPONENTS USED TFT Touch Plus Display This is 3.5 TFT LCD touch screen display module used to order the menu items on each table by the customer and is then sent to kitchen section.

2 Features: Of TFT Touch Plus LCD - Single chip driver for 262,144-color TFT 320RGB x 480-dot graphics (with internal gate and power supply circuits) - Very high resolutions - 262,144-color display - Low-power consumption architecture (allowing direct input of interface I/O power supply) - Deep standby mode - 8-color mode (Idle Mode) - TFT display storage capacitance: Cst (common VCOM method) - Internal frame memory: 345,600 bytes - It has PCB backplane with power IC, SD card socket and reset button - Supported touch panel - 16-bit Parallel bus interface - 4-wire resistive touch screen Arduino Mega 2560 Microcontroller It has 54 digital input/output pins, 16 analog inputs, 4 UARTs (hardware serial ports), a 16 MHz crystal oscillator, a USB connection, a power jack, an ICSP header, and a reset button. It contains everything needed to support the microcontroller; simply connect it to a computer with a USB cable or power it with a AC-to-DC adapter or battery to get started. The Mega 2560 board is compatible with most shields designed for the Uno and the former boards.

3 Features: Of HC-05 Bluetooth Module - Typical -80dBm sensitivity - Up to +4dBm RF transmit power - Low Power 1.8V Operation, 1.8 to 3.6V I/O - PIO control - UART interface with programmable baud rate - With integrated antenna - With edge connector Fig. 3: HC-05 Bluetooth Module III. WORKING PRINCIPLE OF LCD A touch screen is a 2 dimensional sensitive device that is constructed of two sheets of materials separated slightly by a spacer. A common construction is a sheet of glass providing a stable bottom layer and a sheet of polyethylene (PET) as a flexible top layer. The two sheets are coated with resistive material; usually a metal compound called Indium Tin Oxide.The ITO is thinly and uniformly sputtered o to both the glass plate and the PET layer. Tiny bumps called spacer dots are then added to the glass side,on top of resistive ITO coating,to keep the PET film from sagging, causing an accidental or false touch. When the PET film is pressed, the two resistive surfaces meet. The position of this meeting can be read by touch screen controller circuit.the controller reads the X and Y position many times per second so the user may involve his stylus/ finger rapidly across the touch screen and data will be captured.

System Design The operation of the whole system can be seen through the block diagram. The Fig. 5 below shows the project block diagram. 3.5 TFT LCD Touch plus display is used as the input and output for the system design All rights reserved by 178

4 Fig. 5: Block Diagram of the Transmitter Section The system uses a tft touch plus lcd module which is placed on each customer s table to make an order. Customer need to select the menu available on the screen. The completed order will be transmitted to the kitchen section once order button is pressed and the bill is sent at manager section using Bluetooth communication. System Process Flow 1. Transmitter Section 2. Receiver Section Fig. 6: System process flow at transmitter and receiver section The system uses a tft touch module which is placed on each table for the customer to make orders. Order is made by selecting item made available in the menu code on the touch lcd display. Then, the code is decrypted by using arduino mega Later it transmits the data via bluetooth communication once order is confirmed. The processed data is sent to the PC in kitchen section for ordering purpose, and to the manager section for the billing purpose. This system will be done after the customer completed their orders. Software Development The software Arduino IDE was used in embedded C language. The Embedded C language is used to write a source codes for this arduino mega 2560 which is then will be compiled. When the program can be successfully run no error in the source code, then the arduino mega will be programmed. V. CONCLUSION As a conclusion, this hardware and software of project is successfully functioned as the objectives of the project. This project helps to solve the problem faced by the restaurant entrepreneur in the attempt to organize the restaurant more efficiently skilled. It can also be used to reduce the lateness and the error caused on ordering foods by the customer s by waiters. By using this system, the complaints about the services are eliminated. This project can further be improved using tabs and help in development of more efficient food ordering system.
