DEVELOPMENT OF SENSOR-BASED PROTOTYPE ROBOT FOR AUTOMATED FOOD DELIVERY

The food delivery process in Indonesia generally still uses a manual system and queues often occur in stalls at lunch time, especially when an employee is absent or sick. This makes customers have to wait a long time to be able to get food. From the problems above, the researchers took the initiative to create a prototype robot that can deliver food automatically, thereby easing the work of waiters in delivering food. The type of research used is qualitative research using the prototype method. The results show that the robot will move to the destination table by selecting the available menu on the Keypad Shield LCD display. After one of the menus is selected then press the right button on the LCD menu until the Red Table On display appears if red is selected. Then the robot will move towards the destination table according to the input given. If the order is ready to be delivered, the robot will automatically return to its original place. Based on the results of the research above, it was concluded that the prototype could run well and make it easier for business people or restaurants to deliver orders to the consumer's table
