This is something I saw at COMPUTEX 2017 that should work in the US people can adopt to this. In Japan and maybe in Taiwan, many fast-food stores have ordering kiosk where people place their order and pay. Then people proceed to pickup their orders. This eliminates human error when receiving orders. Also eliminate order taking personnel. Other benefit includes no cash handling by the people there for there is no need for theft.
I just do not know if people in the US are up to wording using kiosk (machine).
This is a very cool booth with container being used as a demo / meeting room.
The amount of money some companies spend on their booths are incredible. For 5 day show, I was really impressed. This shows how much emphasis companies put on this COMPUTEX ... it is like a Super Bowl of IT event.
Another thing that I noticed is the lack of Japanese and Korean electronics and computer companies like SONY, SAMSUNG, TOSHIBA, HITACHI, MITSUBISHI, PANASONIC and so on. There are very little US computer companies either.
About COMPUTEX
===============
COMPUTEX Taipei, or Taipei International Information Technology Show, is a computer expo held annually in Taipei, Taiwan. Since the early 2000s, it is among one of the largest computer and technology trade shows in the world.
This is something I found at Computex 2017 ... Personal Parking Space Protection system. It makes your parking space only available to you. You can unlock it using your smartphone.

This is a weekly delivery service created and offered by Kobe Co-op in Japan.
You order using the mark sheet, When they deliver, they take that sheet for next week. My parents told me they spend about 4,000 to 5,000 yen every week and cut down the trip[ to markets at least two times a week saving time.
Who said brick and mortar cannot compete with online retailers? For senior citizens, paper and pen works better.

It is becoming more rate in the US and Japan to use campaign girls at the trade show booth. Well, that trend has not hot Taiwan yet and those girls clearly attracts more people to the booths.

That is an another question. But if they get posted on the social media, the purpose of their presence is paid off for the companies.
I think I saw more gaming hardware here at OMPUTEX 2017 than any other single items. Even a big name hardware manufacturers like ASUS and Acer are displaying their latest gaming hardware.
There must be over 100 small bars in one small block in Shinjyuiku, Tokyo. Non of the bar has more than 10 counter seating ... It has became a very popular tourist spot for visitors from other country.

When everyone knows who you are, it is easy to sell things. But it does cost a lott to crate the brand people recognize. What do you do if you are a small business? How do you sell things online if you are not known?
Wester foods in Japan are little different from the US. The first thing that you notice is that the portion is smaller and often cheaper. The best place to try those western foods are convenience stores like seven-eleven. I arrived in Japan yesterday. I will start looking for new and different things in Japan and report them to you.
