GithubIn modern dining scenarios, manual settlement methods are inefficient, especially during peak hours in university cafeterias, corporate dining halls, and hospital restaurants, which often lead to queuing congestion and settlement errors. To achieve rapid settlement and intelligent management, the catering industry urgently needs to adopt automated plate recognition technology based on machine vision and AI image recognition.
SingTown Technology's automated tray settlement system, built on the OpenMV smart camera, utilizes AI image recognition visual algorithms to achieve meal identification, amount calculation, and settlement linkage, assisting catering enterprises in enhancing operational efficiency and customer experience.

Catering enterprises have adopted SingTown's OpenMV intelligent camera recognition technology to construct a smart dining system that integrates AI machine vision recognition, automatic settlement, and nutrition monitoring.
The system installs an OpenMV intelligent camera above the tray channel to capture tray images in real time. Utilizing AI image recognition visual algorithms, it comprehensively analyzes color, shape, and texture features through deep learning models to identify dish types and quantities, thereby enabling automatic pricing and settlement of trays.
Furthermore, the system can automatically calculate the nutritional intake information for each meal (such as energy, protein, fat, vitamin content, etc.) based on the recognition results, and link it with the user account through the database to achieve personalized health data management.
In environments with complex lighting and reflections from utensils, the OpenMV smart camera automatically adjusts exposure and white balance to ensure recognition stability. Its embedded edge-side AI computing capability enables recognition and settlement to be completed locally, with a response time of less than 1 second, ensuring smooth operation during peak hours.
Relying on SingTown's software and hardware platform, this system offers flexible edge deployment capabilities, enabling quick and easy integration with various scenarios such as restaurant POS systems, membership apps, and health management platforms. It meets diverse intelligent needs including unmanned checkout, nutrition tracking, and data analysis.
Through SingTown Technology's OpenMV intelligent camera AI image recognition technology, the catering industry has successfully transitioned from "automatic settlement" to an "intelligent ecosystem for dietary management," enabling AI machine vision and embedded vision technologies to genuinely empower the healthy development of smart catering.
