The restaurant industry has been significantly damaged by the COVID-19 pandemic. WeCook provides a solution with self-driving food trucks available for rent or purchase. These trucks are meticulously designed to optimize food preparation and workflow, ensuring a contemporary and comfortable environment for chefs. WeCook goes beyond convenience by providing flexible equipment to meet diverse customer needs, allowing them to build cookspaces as desired. The trucks' open side windows enhance service, lighting, and airflow while enabling outside interaction through convenient payment methods. Moreover, WeCook offers customizable advertising options to enhance brand visibility. Users have the option to customize the vehicle, including a front screen to display menus and advertisements. WeCook is a student capstone project aimed at expanding WeWork's brand line and it has no affiliation with the brand. By showcasing the transformative potential of autonomous vehicles, WeCook demonstrates their ability to revolutionize daily lives and reshape the business landscape.
