ODM Success Story: Developing a 10.1-Inch Android Digital Menu Display

Project Overview

BlueShell recently completed an ODM development project for an international restaurant technology customer. Due to confidentiality, the customer's name cannot be disclosed.

The project focused on developing a compact 10.1-inch Android digital menu display designed for restaurants, cafés, hotels and other commercial environments.

The goal was to create a modern alternative to traditional printed menus, combining a professional LCD display, Android technology and integrated battery power in a compact desktop format.

Project Details

  • Project Type: ODM Development

  • Industry: Restaurant Technology

  • Client: Confidential International Customer

  • Display: 10.1-inch IPS LCD

  • Operating System: Android

  • Battery: Built-in 6000mAh battery

  • Application: Digital Menu & Commercial Display


The Customer's Requirements

The customer was looking for a compact display that could be used directly on restaurant counters and tables.

The main requirements included:

  • 10.1-inch commercial display

  • Android operating system

  • High-quality IPS LCD screen

  • Built-in rechargeable battery

  • Compact desktop design

  • Flexible digital content

  • Suitable for restaurant and hospitality applications

Rather than simply selecting an existing product, the customer wanted a solution adapted specifically to the intended application.


BlueShell's ODM Solution

BlueShell worked with the customer throughout the development process, from product definition to manufacturing.

The final solution combines a 10.1-inch IPS LCD display, Android platform, integrated 6000mAh battery and customized PCB architecture in a compact commercial housing.

The desktop format allows the display to be positioned easily on restaurant counters, tables, reception desks and other commercial surfaces.

The Android platform also provides flexibility for digital menu applications, advertising content and future software customization.


Designed for Digital Menus

The main application of the project is digital menu communication.

Instead of relying exclusively on printed menus, restaurants can use the display to present:

  • Food and beverage menus

  • Product images

  • Prices

  • Promotions

  • Seasonal offers

  • New products

  • Brand content

Digital content can be updated without replacing printed materials, giving restaurants greater flexibility when changing products or promotions.


Why a 10.1-Inch Display?

The 10.1-inch format was selected to balance screen readability and compact installation.

A larger display could take up too much counter space, while a smaller screen could make menus and product information harder to read.

The 10.1-inch format provides enough space for digital content while remaining suitable for:

  • Restaurant counters

  • Tables

  • Cafés

  • Hotel restaurants

  • Reception desks

  • Retail counters

  • Promotional displays


Built-In Battery for Flexible Installation

A key feature of the project is the integrated 6000mAh battery.

Battery-powered operation provides greater flexibility when positioning the display and can be particularly useful for temporary promotions, events or locations where permanent power connections are inconvenient.

The exact operating time depends on factors such as brightness, content and system usage.


From Product Concept to ODM Manufacturing

This project demonstrates BlueShell's approach to ODM product development.

Instead of adapting a standard product to the customer's requirements, the project was developed around the customer's application and specifications.

BlueShell supported the project through:

Product Requirements → Hardware Development → Product Integration → Testing → ODM Manufacturing

This approach allows customers to create customized commercial display products without developing the entire hardware platform themselves.


More Than a Digital Menu

Although the project was developed primarily for restaurant applications, the same hardware concept can be adapted to other commercial environments.

Potential applications include:

  • Hospitality

  • Retail

  • Hotels

  • Cafés

  • Information displays

  • Advertising

  • Customer communication

  • Smart commercial displays

This flexibility is one of the main advantages of developing a product through an ODM manufacturing model.
