[0002] In recent years, a large number of self-service restaurants have appeared in society, especially in internal restaurants of schools, hospitals, institutions, enterprises, etc. Self-service meal collection has become more and more popular. Traditional catering settlement is usually for customers to take the food and then go to the cashier to pay. The current catering industry generally adopts manual settlement of consumption. This settlement method not only wastes time but also affects settlement efficiency. During peak hours, it is necessary to calculate the consumption of consumers in a short time, which will cause consumers to wait for a long time, and then lead to the loss of customers. Therefore, the application of smart catering settlement tables is becoming more and more extensive. However, in the process of settlement at smart catering tables, it is inevitable that some plates are blocked, such as using some obstructions that are not recognizable by catering to block the plates, which will cause errors in the settlement system.
