The EPOS lite is a concept design for a hi-tech cash register. The device, ideal for restaurants, has a touchscreen interface and a built-in menu, the design for which was inspired by the Apple MacBook Air and iPhone.
The EPOS lite concept can be easily updated with new menus, thus saving businesses from reprinting new menu data. Customers can simply make their orders directly right from the screen. When the meal items have been selected, they are beamed wirelessly to the chef’'s screen in the kitchen.
