What Does "Interactive KDS" Mean?

Imagine a kitchen where each section is working with an expediter.   The expediter can see everything on screen that the sections are doing in real-time.   When an item is prepped, it gets bumped and that item lights up on the expo's screen.   Also, when an order is assembled by the expo, each section of the order is tracked and timed separately.

Below are some screenshots of FreePOS orders running on ROD/KDS - as items are completed at various prep centers, they instantly light up!   The expo can even see section names and routing information.

The interactive KDS also builds production graphs & reports as shown below:

And outdoor signage can be placed in drive thru environments (with or without order verification screens)
