365Robot: Transforming Singapore’s Food Services Industry with Versatile Robot Waiters

SINGAPORE, Aug. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The food services industry in Singapore is facing a growing challenge as it projects 40% of its jobs to require redesign in the next three years. To address this issue and streamline operations, businesses are seeking innovative solutions. Introducing 365Robot, a pioneering company that is set to revolutionize the food services sector with its advanced robot waiters, catering to the ever-evolving needs of the industry.

365Robot’s Robot Waiters: A Game-Changing Approach

With the introduction of 365Robot’s cutting-edge robot waiters, the food services industry in Singapore will experience a transformative shift. By deploying these robot waiters, restaurants can optimize their workforce and allow human staff to focus on delivering personalized customer experiences and upskilling for future challenges.

Benefits of Robot Waiters:

Enabling Personalized Service: With robot waiters handling repetitive tasks, human staff can dedicate more time to understanding and catering to customers’ unique preferences, creating a truly personalized dining experience.

Efficiency and Time Savings: Robot waiters are programmed to navigate crowded restaurant spaces efficiently, ensuring quicker order deliveries and reducing overall waiting time for patrons.

Autonomous Plate Collection: 365Robot’s robot waiters cruise through the restaurant, and customers can place used plates and glasses onto its tray. After a pre programmed time, the robot will go to the washing area, where staff can collect the dirty plates. Alternatively, staff in the washing area can press a ‘call’ button and the robot will return immediately.

Unmatched Versatility: These highly adaptable robots can seamlessly integrate with various restaurant layouts and service styles, providing versatility that suits any establishment.

Table tracking: Upon placing the order, customers receive a table tracker that can be placed on their table, allowing them to choose their seats without needing humans to direct them. These trackers inform robot waiters the precise location of the customers, and where to deliver orders to.  This way, staff can focus on other tasks, optimising resource allocation and improving overall service quality.

Selecting the right robot waiter for a restaurant is essential. Factors such as the restaurant’s specific needs and challenges, the robot’s capabilities, customization options, integration with existing systems, and cost-effectiveness play a crucial role. 365Robot’s experts work closely with clients to help them understand how the robot waiter’s features align with their goals and customer service strategy.

Customer Success Stories

vivo Launches the Y78 5G in Malaysia for MYR 1,399 – Flagship Parts, Entry-Level Price

Budget smartphones can be a nightmare sometimes. Most of the time we will only recommend a budget smartphone for those who are looking for a secondary device to work with. If you are looking for a daily driver, we would say that you might be much better off spending a little more on mid-range smartphones. It is 2023 though and things change all the time, entry-level smartphones can be good devices now, like this vivo Y78 5G that they just launched.

On paper, it ticks all the right boxes. It has 8GB of RAM, 256GB in storage, Android 14, and even a 64-Megapixel camera. The processor though is not a mid-range system on a chip (SoC) like the Qualcomm Snapdragon 700 series processors. Instead, you get the entry-level Snapdragon 695. That does not mean that you are getting short handed here. You still get 5G connectivity like most modern smartphones do now. It is also capable of taking videos at 4K resolution when you need it to. It will last even longer than most flagships today thanks to its 5,000mAh battery and the fact that the SoC is less power hungry than even the latest mid-range smartphones.

What greets you when you pick up the device is not some random LCD display that offers 720p resolution. You get a proper 120Hz AMOLED experience with a Full HD+ resolution on the 6.78-inch display. There is a 16-Megapixel front facing camera too on top of the display for video conferencing and selfies. Out the back is a 64-Megapixel shooter that is helped also by two other 2-Megapixel cameras for better depth and detailing; that is all you need really.

Within all the glass and aluminium body, you will find a huge 5,000mAh battery as mentioned before. It is not some old battery technology that offers you days of battery life but keeps you near a wall socket when it runs out too. It still offers 44W fast charging to keep charging times below two hours. There is even support for dual-SIM, which is expected these days.

Price and Availability

The Vivo Y78 5G will come in Dreamy Gold and Flare Black colour options. It will set you back MYR 1,399, which is really not a lot of money for a smartphone at this calibre. For more information on the new entry-level smartphone, you can visit Vivo’s website.

Zong 4G’s education program in Pakistan’s underserved communities

BEIJING, Aug. 1, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — A news report from chinadaily.com.cn:

As a child growing up in a small village in Rehri Goth union council in a coastal belt of District Karachi Malir, Pakistan. I faced numerous obstacles, including poverty and limited access to educational resources. Despite these challenges, I had a burning desire to learn, and I dreamt of a brighter future for myself and my family. With 60% of the population unable to read or write, and rural areas facing even more challenges with a mere 49% literacy rate, Pakistan’s education system faced massive challenges. Inadequate infrastructure, lack of trained teachers, and scarce resources trapped millions in a cycle of poverty and limited opportunities.

My journey to education was no different from that of countless other children in my village. I was always curious and eager to learn, but the lack of a computer lab at my school meant that I was missing out on crucial digital literacy skills. I didn’t even know what a computer was, let alone how it worked. That was until a ray of hope shone upon my life. Zong 4G, as part of its sustainability endeavor, partnered with the HANDS Foundation to establish a computer lab at my school. This was a game-changer for me and my fellow students.

When the computer lab was inaugurated back in November 2022, my life took a dramatic turn. I immersed myself in learning computer skills with unwavering determination. With the support of Zong 4G’s connectivity, I delved into the world of Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and internet browsing. My thirst for knowledge was insatiable, and I quickly gained proficiency in these basic but essential digital tools.

The impact of learning how to use a computer on my life was profound. It opened up a whole new world of opportunities for me. I could now access information and resources that were previously beyond my reach. I gained valuable skills that would be instrumental in shaping my future. With each passing day, my confidence soared. I was no longer limited by my circumstances. I had the tools I needed to pursue my dreams, and I was determined to make the most of them. My teachers were amazed by my progress, and I became an inspiration to my peers.

My story, however, did not end here. I was not content with just acquiring skills for myself. I wanted to give back to my community and make a difference in the lives of others. I started using my newfound knowledge to teach my fellow classmates and even my elders about computers and digital literacy. I hoped to become a beacon of hope in my village, inspiring others to embrace the power of education and technology.

My hard work and dedication paid off. In just six months, I had been transformed from a curious and determined student to a confident and skilled young individual. My life had been transformed, and I was now equipped with the tools to pursue my dreams and help others along the way.

I will forever be grateful to Zong 4G for changing my life. Their support has empowered me to break free from the limitations of my circumstances and pursue my dreams. I am determined to make the most of this opportunity and use my skills to make a positive impact in my community and beyond.

My story is a testament to the incredible impact that Zong 4G’s sustainability projects across the One Belt, One Road initiative in Pakistan have had. It is a story of resilience, determination, and the transformative power of education. Thanks to Zong 4G’s efforts to bridge the digital divide, I and many other underprivileged children now have a brighter future ahead of them.
