The time is NOW!
Big retailers and small restaurants must invest in Artificial Intelligence, Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality to keep up with technological trends in the digital signage world. Traditionally, only large scale restaurants have been able to afford the investment in these technologies. Today, smaller restaurants are open to adapt to these trends
From 11-13 March 2019, a panel discussion was held in Louisville, Kentucky amongst restaurant CEOs and Managers regarding how to determine whether or not it is worth for restaurants to invest in AI and VR technologies. Panel Moderator Dave Brewer stated that falling behind ‘even six months out’ of current trends is difficult. Staying on top of trends is essential. Brewer also added that in many discussions he often hears restaurants saying they are connected. But this just means that they have an app, that’s all. Integration is key here, not just connectivity.
Artificial Intelligence is not complicated – it is simply a system that is able to predict sales based on past records. If your system can do that, you are already influencing AI. Smaller restaurants have an advantage of being able to adopt to these technologies faster, thereby efficiently being able to stay ahead of competitors.
Augmented and Virtual Reality focus on integrating the real world with computer generated solutions to provide a more immersive digital experience to customers. Deploying AI and VR is easier for smaller companies as compared to those who have many branches, because for the latter, basic upgrades like these also become a challenge.
In implementing AI, AR and VR technologies, firms should:
• Prioritize integration; don’t just focus on connectivity
• Make the deployment while your company is still small
• Realize that the future is NOW
Panelists understand that many restaurant chains are struggling with thin margins but then again, technology is absolutely necessary, and worth it at the same time. The investment in technology helps with labor and data – hence saving you a lot of steps when it comes to managing the restaurant.
Emphasis is on the fact that it is better to start investing now. Don’t wait for later as it is only going to get more difficult to catch up.
