Could you build this?

Partial The POS and floor-management UI is standard CRUD, but CCTV-driven table and guest tracking needs trained computer-vision models, camera installation, and reliable accuracy in real restaurants.

What it would actually take: The stack would be a POS backend (orders, menus, payments via Stripe or Square APIs) plus a floor-plan UI, with a vision pipeline (person detection, tracking, table-state classification) on edge GPUs fed by RTSP camera streams. The hard parts are model accuracy across lighting and camera angles, labeled restaurant video data, and hardware deployment. That takes computer-vision engineers, data collection, and field installation work.
