Before this, I wasn't knowing travelling in Elevator can be brain-storming too!


Well, we all know about the classic elevator button panel – a row of numbers for each floor. But those buttons might soon be a thing of the past!


In this thread, let's explore some of the cool ways elevators are getting smarter:

  • Destination Dispatch: Imagine an elavator without a single button! In these elevators, you use a fancy touchscreen in the lobby (outside the lift) or your smartphone app to pick your floor. The system then figures out the smartest way to get you there quickly, assigning you to the perfect elevator. No more waiting for everyone else!

  • Touchless Call Panels: Forget germy buttons! Some elevators have touchless panels that sense your hand hovering nearby. Just wave your hand by the floor you want, and the elevator does the rest. It's a clean and convenient way to call your ride.

  • Voice Activated: Want to ditch the buttons altogether? Some elevators respond to voice cmmands! Just say "Going to the 23rd floor!" and the elevator will whisk you away. This is super helpful for people with busy hands or those who might need extra assistance.

  • Facial Recognition (The Future is Here!): Imagine the elevator recognizing you and taking you straight to your floor! This futuristic tech uses facial scans or iris recognition technology to identify who you are and send you where you need to go. Making elevators personalized and seamless!
