These Are the Robots Taking Up Dallas’ Open Restaurant Jobs

These Are the Robots Taking Up Dallas’ Open Restaurant Jobs | Hospitality Technology | Scoop.it
Restaurants are increasingly turning to automated solutions to their staffing shortages. Is the future of labor a delivery robot on wheels?
Sophia Mendez Ferguson's curator insight, September 25, 2022 10:36 PM
Due to personnel shortages and eager patrons, restaurants find it difficult to meet demand. Restaurants with low employee levels are increasingly using technology and automation. In response to excessive inflation, more enterprises in the food sector are using automation and robots to reduce costs. Automation offers advantages including streamlining certain operations, filling labor gaps, and assisting with inventory and storage, which are advantageous given the high cost of recruiting, hiring, training, and retaining staff.

With Technology and COVID-19, it’s How, Not If for Restaurants

With Technology and COVID-19, it’s How, Not If for Restaurants | Hospitality Technology | Scoop.it
Technology was a muddled and complicated arena for restaurants before COVID-19. But you generally had two choices—embrace or avoid. That’s not so much the case today. What is still valid, however, is trying to understand what fits and what doesn’t, and which paths to implementation represent the best strategy. Early on during the pandemic, operators dove just to dive, or because they had no choice. Yet on the doorstep of winter, with cases surging and no letup in sight, refining digital infrastructure becomes key.

Amazon’s new smart shopping cart lets you check out without a cashier

Amazon’s new smart shopping cart lets you check out without a cashier | Hospitality Technology | Scoop.it
Amazon on Tuesday announced the Dash Cart, a new smart shopping cart designed to track the items you take off shelves and place inside. It links to your Amazon account and lets you check out of the store without waiting in line or dealing with a cashier. Right now, it’s designed for use at Amazon’s Woodland Hills grocery store opening later this year in Los Angeles.
Sophia Mendez Ferguson's comment, October 9, 2022 11:37 PM
The technology that Amazon has so cleverly developed is a fantastic alternative to your traditional buying methods. In fact, I had the experience when traveling to Seattle, Washington, to see my daughter. My main concern is accidentally adding the wrong item to the cart and having to pay for it. Apart from that, it was a wonderful experience.

Hotel tech bosses urge better multi-platform integration | PhocusWire | Hospitality Technology | Scoop.it
Over 80% of chief information officers, chief technology officers and chief operating officers of hotel brands wanted their PMS provider to concentrate on integrations.
Sophia Mendez Ferguson's curator insight, September 30, 2022 5:41 PM
A product or system that supports many operating systems or platforms, such as Windows, a PC, a laptop, a smartphone, or several proprietary programs, is said to be multi-platform. It is crucial to develop an integration platform that, by offering a platform for integration, eliminates the complicated maintenance and communication channels produced by point-to-point integrations and decouples the relationships between source and destination.
