Restaurants @ LUT
TEAM
- Ilkka Tommola
- Tulibako Paiti
- Doreen Mushi
Idea
- Extracting information about restaurant menus for restaurants at LUT.
- Sodexo menus can be extracted by using JSON.
- Aalef restaurant menus are just HTML and that's why we are mainly focusing on Sodexo restaurants.
- Providing list of restaurants that are currently open.
- Showing webcam images for Sodexo restaurant at main building and the restaurant at Student union house
Technologies
- C#
- Windows phone 8
- JSON
- Context awareness: at least time (what restaurants are open), possibly preferences (what restaurants are shown on Windows Phone Start page).
Motivation
- To find out operating hours of the restaurants
- Need to know available menus and course details conveniently from any location
- Saving and managing time by seeing current queue status of the restaurants
Main Features
- Cafeteria Choice
- Menu Views
- JSON – Extracted Menu Views
- Webcam Views
- Information Pages
User Interface examples
Main Page
The main page of the application. There are four clickable buttons for restaurants and an application bar for “eat” funcionality (represented by a circle as proper icon was not drawn) and “settings” (the button currently doesn't do anything).
User can click the “eat” button to quickly see today's menu for all restaurants if they are currently open.
Restaurant Functions
A menu of selected restaurant's functions. Not all restaurants have all functions. There are four clickable buttons “Day's menu”, “Week's menu”, “Restaurant info” and “Webcam”.
The “Webcam” button is a hyperlink even though it should be similar button as the three buttons above.
