Fast Food Techy, too

I was just reading about a similar ability in use at fast food restaurants, only more so. In that case rather than tracking consumer use over days and weeks, they are tracking over minutes and adjusting production to the predicted, impending demand in real time: http://www.gohyper.com. Pretty nifty.
