发明名称 SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DISPLAYING AND MANAGING ELECTRONIC MENUS
摘要 Systems and methods display and manage wireless electronic menus that are capable of connecting to a computer terminal, a server and/or a database via one or more communication networks. The systems are capable of managing wireless electronic menus within a single site establishment or within multi-site establishments. The menus have one or more sensors for determining if the menus are in motion, idle, in use not in use or docked to a charging base to define a menu status for each menu. The terminal updates the menu content of the menus based on the menu status of each menu. A proximity sensor determines a location of the menus to define a configuration of the menus with respect a table or a table configuration of tables on a floor plan. Sensors, a user input and/or the computer terminal associate the menus with a menu grouping or with the table in close proximity of the menus so that common menu content may be display by each menu. The menus display menu content for available goods and/or services offered by a provider in one or more languages as selected by users of the menus. Usage of menus is accurately tracked by the proximity sensor and the sensors of the menus to eliminate false counts and to correct for errors generated by multiple uses of the menu by multiple users. The menus provide lists of goods and/or services in a format which is capable of being sorted and/or filtered based on the information and/or multimedia data indicative of the goods and/or services.
