The problem

Currently the students must wait in a line to buy the ticket and then they need to wait again in a second line to get the food. Additionally, the only way to check if there’s free spaces is by looking at the current state of the tables.

The project

The project consist in the implementation of a system to automate the billing of the tickets and control the entrance of the students to the restaurant, avoiding the need of the lines. Additionally, the app will show to the student the current occupancy of the restaurant, so they can manage their time to avoid waiting for tables.
