LAMF: Lighting Adjustment for Mood by Food: RFID Based Context Aware Food Ordering and Lighting Control System at Restaurants

A Ubiquitous environment is expected to provide appropriate services based on the identified context regardless of time and place. For satisfying this demand, activated communication among participating objects is essential. RFID is in the spotlight as communication means due to its economic feasibility and expandability and has been attempted to be applied to various domains. The system proposed in this research is a part of smart restaurant system that automatizes food order, bill payment and mood associated lighting control depending on the served food types supported mainly by the RFID technology. This efficient and innovative system could not only reduce time and cost for managing a restaurant but also provides synthesized real-time mood lighting for the customers to enhance their emotion rich dining experiences.
