Selecting your desired pizza and its topping can definitely be a brainstorming session for you and your friends. I keep facing this problem from time to time. But what if your pizza menu reads your subconscious mind and decides the perfect pizza for you?
Yes, industry giant Pizza Hut is testing the “the world’s first subconscious menu” in UK. This uses an eye-tracking technology to determine what toppings you really want. The system monitors the items your eyes linger over in the menu and then suggests a custom made combination.
How this pizza menu works?
This is basically a tablet with a built in camera which captures your eye movements. This is done with the help of infrared light. This innovative menu is being tested in every Pizza Hut outlet of UK and is developed by Tobii in partnership with the pizza chain. The menu features 20 ingredients most commonly used in all Pizza Hut Restaurants’ pizzas e.g. fresh peppers, chorizo, pepperoni, chicken etc.
