Mesamate - Robotic Food Server
Mesamate is an innovative capstone project that combines robotics, web development, and embedded systems to create an autonomous food service solution. The system includes a robotic food server that uses advanced pathfinding algorithms to navigate and serve food to customers. The platform features comprehensive order collection and management through an admin panel, while the robot can also function as an interactive kiosk for customer orders. Built with Next.js and Express.js for the web interface, Firebase for real-time data management, Python for the pathfinding algorithms, and C++ for embedded control, Mesamate represents a complete integration of multiple technologies. The hardware implementation uses Raspberry Pi for processing and Arduino Mega 2560 for motor control, developed using Cursor, VSCode, and Arduino IDE.
