Abstract:
A system for managing performance of a service establishment, the service establishment having multiple servers and multiple customers. Each server has a server queue with zero or more customers. Servers take orders from customers when they reach the head of the server's queue. The system includes: an order input interface for obtaining orders from the servers as the servers take orders from the customers; one or more digital video cameras positioned and configured to capture video of the server queues; a public view monitor viewable by the customers; a management monitor viewable by one or more managers of the service establishment; and a customer tracking processor. The customer tracking processor is configured to: receive video of server queues; identify customers in the video data; track customer progress in the server queues; and calculate and display expected wait times of the server queues on the public view monitor.
