Aplicación web y móvil para gestionar catálogos de menús en restaurantes mediante realidad aumentada con opción de pago en línea

Abstract

This project involves the creation of an administrative web application and a mobile application for users. The web application allows restaurants to update their menus instantly, while the mobile application offers customers the possibility of viewing dishes interactively on their phones, using augmented reality. The research in the reviewed articles highlights the importance and impact of augmented reality (AR) in various fields. [1] highlights how AR optimizes military logistics processes, improving storage, transportation and distribution of supplies. [2] analyzes the application of the 3D didactic model in collaborative learning environments, highlighting that AR enhances students' creativity and spatial perception, which facilitates collaborative learning and interaction. [3] examines the incorporation of AR in university education, pointing out that this technology increases motivation and improves learning outcomes. The main objective of this project is to develop an application that simplifies menu management in restaurants through augmented reality and offers a secure payment solution, providing a better experience for both customers and staff. The RUP methodology was used, which consists of four stages: start, preparation, construction and transition. The results showed that augmented reality improves the customer experience by allowing interactive viewing of dishes, facilitating decision-making. Likewise, online payment optimized the restaurant's operational efficiency. The evaluation, based on the ISO 25010 standard, reflected a high level of satisfaction in usability and functionality, with a compliance rate of over 85%. It is concluded that the integration of these technologies improves the interaction between customers and restaurants, in addition to streamlining the purchasing process.
