Enhancing Business Efficiency: The Billiard Hall Automation Project

Automation is revolutionising businesses across industries, and Malta is no exception. We recently completed an exciting project that brought automation to a billiard hall, making it the first fully automated venue of its kind in Malta. This bespoke solution demonstrates how tailored automation can enhance operational efficiency, reduce costs, and deliver a superior customer experience.

The Vision: A Fully Automated Billiard Hall

The goal was to create a space where customers could book and enjoy billiard games with minimal human intervention while maintaining seamless operations. Our team delivered an end-to-end automation solution, handling everything from conceptual design to full-scale implementation.

Key Features of the Solution
  • Streamlined Booking System

    Customers can book a table online by selecting their preferred time slot on the website. Once the payment is confirmed, they receive a unique four-digit code granting access to the hall and the table they reserved.

  • Access Control

    The system eliminates the need for a physical receptionist or staff member. Using their code, customers can enter the premises at any time, giving the business owner flexibility and extended operating hours without additional staffing costs.

  • Intelligent Light Management

    Our solution integrates Loop hardware and the Loop Control platform to manage lighting efficiently. Upon booking, the hall’s main lights activate, and directional lighting for the reserved table switches on at the start of the time slot, ensuring energy efficiency and a tailored customer experience.

  • Seamless Integration

    The entire setup integrates seamlessly with the venue’s booking system, ensuring a unified experience for both customers and the business owner.

The Business Case for Automation

For businesses considering automation, comparing the investment to the recurring cost of hiring staff is crucial. While hiring requires ongoing salaries, benefits, and training, automation is a one-time investment with long-term benefits. In the case of the billiard hall, automation allows the owner to operate the venue round the clock, without needing on-site personnel.

Environmental Benefits of Automation

Beyond cost savings, automation can make your business more energy-efficient. Features like smart lighting reduce unnecessary energy use, making businesses environmentally friendly and eligible for government funding promoting green initiatives. This dual benefit of reduced operational costs and environmental impact makes automation an investment that pays dividends.
