It sounds like you are talking aboutsome sort of system not unlike the restaurant pagers that exist. I'm not certain if they definitely use a sprung pin (pogo) connector, but it makes the most sense.

Something like this? https://www.measypos.com/waitercallbuttonsystem/
or this? https://www.amazon.com/SINGCALL-Wireless-Supermarket-Restaurant-Receiver/dp/B00ECU9B4U
You could find a system that's reliable and affordable, then just sell to restaurants, install, train, etc. Or lease the equipment with a monthly service fee, free on-call support and service.

Push the red button on this remote and the receiver blasts out a screeching siren that can wake the dead.
There should be a lot of possible things like this, as a quick search turned up a few possibilities.

I like this one that can be tied to a land line. No monthly fee is the best part! Just a button and remote call box.

an obscure website called "Amazon" sells them.
I would just get something separate from the system, like a wireless pager that you can tell the front desk workers to press whenever they ring someone up.
Well in that case amazon sells the old school Pager. Im not sure how the services are configured on them.
How's this Amazon IoT button, for waiter page amongst other things. Less clutter on the table. Might come down a bit in price point but probably competitive with your offering. If the waiter is distracted anyway, I don't like a system where there are always lights lit -- within days wait staff will be signal blind and ignore them just as if they weren't there.
Do you pay attention to banner ads? It's visual pollution.
Larger point, there are search engines. And I find three, five, seventy, or fifteen hundred already on the market -- possibly proven -- alternatives. Every time anyone posts an idea. Why?
Nobody has to be discouraged by this in any way. You can take a look at the dozens of alternatives, pick three you feel are best, test fairly cheaply, and sell any or all. What you will have gained is simple competitive awareness necessary to compete as a viable business idea. One minute on a search engine.
Something is screwy when first news of all the variety of different ideas has to come from me. I should think one might like to do a minute's homework so it at least looks like they thought things through.
So what the fuck is it with the zero research shower thoughts that look like everybody takes incredibly short showers? Every fricking time. Nobody is embarrassed because they could not spend an instant looking up this awesome idea they had -- or if they did could not search for any likely alternatives. Is it malignant inventor's syndrome or something even worse?
You're going to find running a business more challenging than running a simple search.

SINGCALL Wireless Calling System of course, for one dollar you can do what one Mexican restaurant does, give you a red flag you can raise.
wireless waiter calling system Competitive threat? Maybe you've drawn a red line around everything that is not precisely your idea. Do you think customers will?
WAITER CALL BUTTON SYSTEM FOR RESTAURANTS: No searchy. No findy.
Tabletop signaling device for restaurants " The signaling device includes a plurality of light sources and switches for illuminating vertically spaced panels disposed on the front of the signaling device, each panel having predetermined and distinct indicia disposed thereon for signaling a specific message. " Damn that sounds familiar -- maybe you should work on a cure for search blindness.
But wait, many restaurants have tabletop kiosks. Do you honestly mean to tell me, of hundreds on the market, ZERO signal the waiter? I wonder what I would have found had I spent TWO minutes looking.
that too.
So I'm looking at this https://www.amazon.com/dp/B078LRR5XF/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_U_gjQKDbYC9XQB3, and I've got an alexa. it's not perfect, but if it can hear my voice it can make calls.
Pagers are a good idea. Place I work at uses something like this for customers when we fill up and it works great.
