The podcast features a conversation between the host, Rishi, and Akshay Narayankar, who is the founder of a company that has developed a 3D menu technology for restaurants. Akshay discusses how this technology uses augmented reality (AR) to allow customers to see and interact with 3D models of food items on the menu, making the dining experience more interactive and engaging. They highlight the potential of this technology to go beyond the restaurant industry, mentioning its applicability in various sectors where physical products are sold.
The technology, which does not require app downloads and operates directly in web browsers, aims to solve the problem of decision paralysis that customers face when ordering food. By providing realistic 3D models of menu items, customers can make more informed decisions, enhancing their dining experience.
Akshay also discusses the technical aspects of creating these 3D models, including the use of 500-700 photographs stitched together using proprietary software to generate high-quality 3D representations of food items. They emphasize the uniqueness and difficulty of creating accurate food models due to the complex textures and colors of food.
The service is offered as an annual subscription to restaurants, with the goal of improving menu presentation and customer satisfaction without taking a commission from the restaurant's revenue. The company targets restaurants offering international and fusion cuisine, where the menu items might be unfamiliar to customers, as well as fine dining establishments.
Akshay encourages restaurant owners interested in adopting this technology to contact them through their website or directly via phone, offering special deals for those who mention the podcast. The company is based in Mumbai, Maharashtra, but is open to working with restaurants across India and is also expanding internationally to places like London and the UAE.
The conversation ends with Rishi expressing interest in following up on the company's progress in the future and the potential for a second interview to discuss advancements and experiences with the 3D menu technology.
