..

Today we've basically been trying to "nut out" our ideas for the assignment we've recieved. we also had to narrow it down to three.. i can only remember one idea,, i really shouldnt have left my book at my mates house.. oops. but yeahh nathan helped me to think of other approaches to it. i.e. a projection from the middle of the table so others at the table can also interact with it.

It's harder than it seems to get my words onto paper.. well microsoft word.


Sincerely,

I think this is kind of the same thing as the last exercise that we did like 3 minutes before.

So this restaurant takes interactivity to a whole new level, people are able to interact with many
different aspects, which include things like games, being able to call cabs to the location and so on.

Now that restaurant seems epic, if only i could find some information on it, and write it up.
I wouldn't mind visiting it one day, if i knew where it was , cause that looks epic.

1.)
okay so this isn't really a new technology for a menu, its a technology that registers when a consumable drink is empty, and allows the waiter/tresses to know when to ask them for another drink. I'm liking this technology a bit. The containing video relates to viewers how the infrared technology is used in this.

2.)
This machine is quite interesting, it allows the user to view foods, interact with other customers,
split bills and other functions without the aid of a waiter/tress. The fact that it is able to view video's
while you wait for your meal to be prepared is a unique idea, one which may keep the children enthralled.

3.) This is another innovative menu which was produced by iron chef star Moto Homara. the article doesn't reveal much about how it is created, but it does explain it a bit in the enclosed video.

4.)So yeah, this menu seems kind of cool, it is very interactive and very creative, it may keep the children entertained if they like trying to unfold items and trying to reconfigure them, however i don't think that the business owner will like the children dismantling their menu's unless they have a massive stock readily available.

5.) This link doesn't deal with just one menu type, it has a variety of things, i.e the pizza place in germany has a card chip system which eliminates the need of waiters, where you pay as you leave and you don't have to tip waiters, therefor making it cheaper.
