Description

Method and apparatus for providing user-customized ordering platform service The present invention relates to a method and apparatus for providing a user-customized order platform service. The following description merely provides background information related to an embodiment according to the present invention and does not constitute prior art. Recently, an increasing number of establishments in the culinary industry are adopting cooking robots powered by artificial intelligence as a solution to labor shortages caused by rising labor costs. When an order is received, the cooking robot automatically prepares the dish using a pre-stored recipe. Since the robot can cook using recipes developed directly by professional chefs, it can reproduce the same taste as a dish prepared by a professional chef. Recipes provided to cooking robots can be managed by independent recipe programs installed for each store. In this case, managing and modifying the recipe program is inconvenient, and changing or adding recipes is cumbersome. Existing recipe programs cannot provide customized services because they provide only standardized recipes without considering customers' tastes, tendencies, or preferences. Furthermore, existing recipe programs could not provide recipes suited to specific store characteristics because they do not take into account the store's characteristics. Therefore, a service is required that prepares and serves food to customers using customized recipes, adjusting the taste according to their preferences.

FIG. 2 is an operation flowchart illustrating a method for providing a user-customized order platform service according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 3 is an operation flowchart illustrating a method for providing a user-customized order platform service according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the configuration of a user-customized order platform service providing device according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the overall flow of a user-customized order platform service according to an embodiment of the present invention. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Hereinafter, repetitive descriptions and detailed descriptions of known functions and configurations that may unnecessarily obscure the essence of the invention are omitted. Embodiments of the present invention are provided to more fully explain the invention to those with average knowledge in the art. Accordingly, the shapes and sizes of elements in the drawings may be exaggerated for clearer explanation. Although terms such as "first" or "second" are used to describe various components, these components are not limited by such terms. Such terms may be used merely to distinguish one component from another. Accordingly, the first component mentioned below may be the second component within the technical scope of the present invention. Throughout the specification, when a part is described as "comprising" a certain component, this means that, unless specifically stated otherwise, it does not exclude other components but may include additional components. Hereinafter, preferred embodiments according to the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing entities for providing a user-customized order platform service according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1, in one embodiment of the present invention, entities for providing a user-customized order platform service include an order platform service providing device (110), a user terminal (120), and a cooking robot (130). The order platform service providing device (110) may be a device that receives order information from a user terminal (120), generates a corresponding cooking program, and transmits it to a cooking robot (130) so that the cooking robot (130) cooks food.
