Each of these touchscreen tables come equipped with virtual menus from which diners can order from. In addition to its convenience, these tables benefit those dining with children as the easy-to-use menus enable customization for picky little ones. After food is ordered, the guests can play a variety of [family friendly games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tiburon-tables) which serve as the perfect distraction until the food arrives. As an added bonus, Kodisoft's tables can connect to [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/family-center), so users can update their profiles while the restaurant accesses their user data, producing targeted ads. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.5/10 - Popularity: 38% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Life-Stages](https://www.trendhunter.com/life-stages) > [Youth](https://www.trendhunter.com/youth) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Interactive Touchscreen Tables:** Opportunity for restaurants to integrate digital solutions to customize orders, facilitate games to entertain guests and gain valuable data through user profiles. - **Connected Restaurant Kiosks:** Increasing importance of integrating technology to improve customer experience while reducing employee workload and minimizing human errors. - **Multi-functional Dining Experience:** Emerging trend of experiential dining that combines entertainment, customization and convenience for diners. ### Where This Applies - **Food and Beverage:** Restaurants can leverage digital solutions to enhance customer experience, increase efficiency, and gain deeper customer insights. - **Hospitality:** Hotels and resorts can incorporate interactive dining experiences to differentiate themselves and provide guests with unique, personalized services. - **Entertainment:** Entertainment venues can explore interactive dining as a way to engage customers and add value to their experiences. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Intuitive Self-Service Order Kiosks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/selfordering-kiosks.md) - [Subtly Smart Dining Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/etto-table.md) - [Interactive Digital Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tabmeal.md) - [Digital Board Game Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-arena.md) - [Connected Touchscreen TV Tables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tcl-telly-table.md) - [Gesture-Based QSR Menus](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touchless-menu-gesture-technology.md) - [All-in-One Self-Serve Kiosks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/touch-dynamic.md) - [Interactive Kiosk Content](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/red-dot-digital-media.md) - [Touchscreen Retail Ordering Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/microtouch-products.md)
