FASTEST Food Delivery Direct to Located Table!

Table Tracker is a table location system using wireless that shows runners the exact location where customers are seated. Deliver food fast! The system collects real time data for later analysis so that operators can see key metrics that allow enhancement of increased efficiency with productivity that will improve profitability.
place-order

Place Order

The Tracker is swiped over the 'Starter unit' when being given to a customer at order time. This creates the order on the Tracking system.

locate-table

Device Location

The Tracker transmits its location to the system and once placed on a table it transmits the table number to the system instantly.

Food Delivery

Once the food is prepared and still hot, the server or runners can see the exact table for the fastest food delivery and expedite the delivery.

data-analysis-tt

Performance Analysis

Customer and other data from real time operation is accessible by management so that informed decisions can be taken based on in depth real data analysis for fast management responses.

Simple to Use

It could not be easier. The customer chooses a table and places the Tracker on the chosen table. The table number is immediately reported to the system. Customer moves tables? No problem!

complete-accuracy-tt

Total Accuracy

This tracking system has no 'zones' or is allocated to certain areas of the restaurant. Trackers show the exact location of the customer. Even outdoor tables are detected.

Full Integration

The LRS API for Table Tracker is available at no cost if any developer wants to integrate other ePOS or software or even kiosk integration not already supported. Technical support available. Ask for details.

no-battery-under-tables-tt

No Batteries - Just RFID

The RFID system used is a 'passive' version. This means that there are no batteries to change under tables and no maintenance needed.

no-maintenance-tables-tt

Clutter free Tables

No table clutter when Tracking is installed. You get a completely maintenance free and clean table without table interference.

total-table-coverage-tt

Whole Table Coverage

The RFID tags placed under the whole of the table ensures that wherever a Tracker is placed above that it is instantly detected.

The Display Screen in Use

Currently screens use an iPad and its possible to use up to 5 EXTRA screens in total. Screens use colour codes to indicate the current real time state of any order and location as follows:

tracker-screens-and-colours

GREY

Grey items are reported and shown as the 'newest' entries and this is a normal state for an entry.

AMBER

The amber items are orders that are nearing the selected target times set by the system (adjustable) and indicate a 'nearing completion' time.

RED

Red indicates customers that have been waiting longer than the allocated serve time expected and are always at the top of the wait list showing table number and wait time so far.

Full Analytics & Key Metrics

Informed decisions based on real time and other key metrics are the secret to great management. Using Table Tracker that collects real data that can even be consolidated is a great move to achieving the best results possible for management to make immediate decisions.

analytics-on-any-platform

COLLECTED DATA

Standard reporting is available for instant reports or key metric data can be downloaded.

SECURE

All data is stored on secure and safe platforms.

FULL ANALYSIS

Data can show key information based on real time operation. Standard reports include: Summary, location comparisons, delivery times by day, week or by time of day, to go orders by time of day, weekday orders, table use, time to sit by time of day, goal met by time of day and custom reports. It is possible to consolidate different premises sites and create improvements based on facts rather than anecdotal assumptions.

How Table Tracking Works

Table Tracker might look like a complex solution, but in reality it's operation is simple. Here is information about how it all works on-site:

how-tracking-works

CLOUD INTEGRATION

LRS servers store collected data that can be used for reports or downloaded for further processing on your equipment with common formats.

Wi-Fi

Wireless is used on-site to ensure a seamless connectivity between LRS components and other high technology.

ZIGBEE

RFID and Zigbee technology is used for customer and other infrastructure to ensure perfect lossless communications every time.

See the video for real time application of Table Tracker in a fast casual restaurant.

Components of the TT System

Examine below all of the components used to create a complete tracking solution, some are required, while others are optional depending on the exact layout and style of operation in the  establishment.

TRACKER APPLICATION

The Table Tracker application is custom developed for an iPad system. The iPad connects wirelessly and is very reliable. Up to 5 iPad's can be used at once. Larger low cost screens are also available. LRS Connect can also run Table Tracker on any PC with a browser.

SIL-Z TRACKER DEVICE

SIL-Z Tracker unit works with RFID and Zigbee protocols. The unit can read tags under table, and transmit the read data over a Mesh Network back to the user interface. Data is updated immediately. Start, Clear or Tag info ensures the system is updated constantly.

WATERPROOF TAG SHEETS

The RFID tag sheets that are used under all tables are custom made and are completely waterproof. Once applied under-table there are no batteries or any other maintenance required and tags will operate without any other maintenance operation being carried out.

OPERATING DOCKS

Starting and Clearing Docks are usually used when entering the Tracker in to the system. Start the Tracker and it is shown immediately on the system. Similarly, when food has been delivered a clearing unit is used to remove the order after completion off the system.

SIL-Z TRACKER CHARGING BASE

The SIL-Z Tracker charging base is used to 'stack' the Trackers vertically so that the 'footprint' is very small in the booking area. Trackers are constantly on charge when not in use to ensure that they have a very long operating period when being used by customers.

OPTIONAL TABLE DOCKS

For restaurants that don't mind having a dock on the table top. These docks reduce system costs dramatically and are one of the ways to create a low cost Table Tracking system. If the restaurant is smaller in size and the budget is tight up to 3 Trackers per dock work fine.

PCU CLEARING DEVICE

One way of ensuring very accurate data is by using a PCU clearing device. Staff carry one in their pocket and once food is delivered the Tracker is 'cleared' by swiping it over the PCU device. This shows exact time of food delivery completion.

ZIGBEE REPEATER

Repeaters are part of the Mesh Network and are an integral important part of the Tracking system. It is important to have adequate repeaters for a fully loaded Table Tracker system otherwise errors can occur. We advise how many you need based on required coverage.

OPTION CUSTOM TABLE TOP MATS

Optionally there are custom mats available, with company logo or other designs. Some mats are waterproof and can be used outdoors. There are also mats similar to a 'dock' can be placed on table tops so that table tags are not used in the restaurant.

THE LRS GATEWAY

Our LRS Gateway is the 'glue' that connects two systems together. This 'gateway' allows Wi-Fi and Zigbee Mesh Networks to operate flawlessly. Everything goes through this gateway, whether data, traffic or other information. It's a custom device that uses LRS firmware internally and you need just one per system.

YOUR ROUTER OR OURS?

The Wi-Fi network router creates the Wi-Fi network on-site. The gateway connects to the router and in turn the router connects to the cloud and LRS servers. It is important to ensure that company network data is not allowed on this network so there is no overloading or data speed reduction when the Tracker system is in use.
