iBeacons with Google Glass Implementation including Mobile Payments


This is a working prototype of a service targeted to bars and restaurants for personalized and easy delivery; no need to stay in lines to order your drink or food! iBeacons are used to triangulate the user (customer) inside the bar or restaurant; the user takes a selfie picture and places an order inside the app. The app also allows the user to pay within the app. The app sends the information to the waiter. The waiter, wearing Google Glass (to keep hands free for making drinks and carrying the food), gets an automatic notification that shows the order with detailed info on where the customer is in the room and displays the customer's face picture. This would be a great solution for OpenTable to offer, don't you think?!
