Final Project

Capstone
ORDER table ordering device mockup

ORDER — Table Ordering Device

ORDER is a self contained, table mounted ordering device for restaurants, bars, and public dining spaces where speed and autonomy matter. Instead of waiting for a waiter, customers interact directly with a touchscreen at their table, browse the menu, add items, and place orders instantly.

It runs on an ESP32 system with WiFi, sending orders in real time to the kitchen or bar with no staff in the loop. The enclosure was fully designed and 3D printed, making it a complete hardware and software solution built from scratch.
