Food Menu on mobile phone using GSM AND 8051 Microcontroller

In most of the universities, hostel mess has a different menu for each week or day, which not only wastes paper but is also difficult for students to remember. It would be great if users get a menu whenever in need on their mobile phone and help them decide whether to have their meals in a mess or college cafe. So, to overcome such situations, this daily problem can be solved, using GSM and 8051 microcontroller to know the menu, just like a bot on an IRCTC’s or any other website does, which helps by searching a specific keyword to help out with consumers problems. Similarly, a keyword like “menu” can be sent as an SMS to GSM which will act as an input to the microcontroller and according to that specific day and time it will process the menu and give the output to the GSM which will be sent to the user’s mobile phone as an SMS, so in-short GSM will act as an interface for handling messaging service. By this, students can know their offered meal anytime anywhere and can respond by texting “yes” to make a plate for them. If a student does not respond “yes” then his/her portion of food will be reduced in the mess pantry while preparing the meal. Therefore, this will limit food wastage as well.
