AdvanTech Inc., has created a radio frequency identification (RFID)-powered drive-thru system named the 'FlyThruDriveThru.' This drive-thru system detects customers' orders by reading an identification decal on the front of the customer's car dashboard. The FlyThruDriveThru will then remember the orders of customers who have used the service before. Then, upon arriving at the restaurant, the RFID sensor will analyze the decal and automatically enter the order into the restaurant's point-of-sale (POS) system.
This system is meant to increase profits, eliminate miscommunications, reduce employee turnover, and boost the accuracy of the orders placed. By removing current complicated communication devices at a drive-thru restaurant, customers and employees will have more free time and make fewer errors on orders. With the advanced order detection system, customers' orders are expected to never be wrong. On top of this, the FlyThruDriveThru system allows for curated upselling, such as knowing that a customer typically enjoys a large, cold drink on a hot day.
The FlyThruDriveThru can be installed in a matter of hours and seamlessly integrated into most POS systems through its API integration.
