Food-Tech Store Automation: Robot Kitchen & POS in Real Time
Real-time control of an unmanned udon store's cooking robot, POS and CCTV. Lighthouse 100.
Overview
I built the web view of a real-time control app for an unmanned udon store where a robot does the cooking: hardware integration, auth and data visualization in one food-tech store automation project.
Background
Problem
Running an unmanned store meant seeing and controlling the cooking robot, POS and CCTV on one screen, in real time.
What I did
- With no separate backend server, implemented digest authentication for Hanwha Vision's hardware protocol (SUNAPI: MD5 hashing, QOP handling) in Next.js API Routes to talk to CCTV devices and play audio through the store speakers.
- Streamed cooking-robot and POS status to the screen in real time with SSE.
- Built dashboards for dwell time and daily / hourly visitors (custom bar graph), plus store alerts and status updates.
- Cookie-based auth with NextAuth and httpOnly, sameSite and secure cookies against XSS and CSRF.
Results
- Lighthouse 100
Optimized the charts and rendering to reach a Lighthouse score of 100.
- Full UI in the first week
Laid out the entire UI and UX within a week of joining.
Key features
- 01
Live device status
Receives cooking-robot and POS status over SSE and reflects it on screen in real time.
- 02
CCTV integration and announcements
