Their collection and delivery functions can facilitate and make the work of waiters and chefs considerably more efficient. Your teams will have the right operational support to devote more importance to the sales and reception aspects of your guests. Thanks to the 3D obstacle detection system, the robots can safely move around the premises, bringing food to customers and picking up dirty dishes. By mapping the arrangement of the tables, it is also possible to use the robots as a companion, to be placed at the entrance if there is a customer reservation. Additionally, after the health emergency experience, disinfection robots, such as Puductor, are an important ally to keep the environment clean and sanitized.
