The Waiter-Bot is an exceptional autonomous robot which has the ability to follow a designated path like a path finder with the help of IR sensor arrays and reach its intended destination. It is an Arduino based robotic design implemented to seek out and detect its required destination and perform its deliberate tasks with precision and accuracy. The Waiter-Bot consists of simple mechanical design which has simple mechanism with which performing the necessary tasks becomes easier. Due to its design parameters, it also requires less power and draws less current which allows us to work with the robot safely. Moreover, it also adds to the safety to its environment and the people around it. Its light weight builds up allows us to assemble the parts without having the difficulty to carry it anywhere. Once assembled, the entire robot still remains light in its weight and can easily be moved around if necessary. Based on its complete set-up and overall parameters, the waiter-bot stands out on its own to become an important aspect to the solution of this paper. The use of robots as waiters in restaurants is on an increasing trend in the service industry. Restaurants owners have begun to look towards robots to aid in serving the customers due to shortage of waiters. Its light weight build up allows us to assemble the parts without having the difficulty to carry it anywhere. Once assembled, the entire robot still remains light in its weight and can easily be moved around if necessary. Based on its complete set-up and overall parameters, the waiter stands out on its own to become an important aspect to the solution of this thesis project
