In the modern air freight industry, efficiency and safety are top priorities. Processes must run smoothly to save time and costs while ensuring the security of the cargo. This is where a new application of our computer vision technology comes into play: the optical recognition of air cargo containers.
Who hasn’t experienced it: stairs or elevator? You press the button for the elevator and wait. The minutes seem to tick by, but the elevator still isn’t there. This everyday situation can be frustrating for many, especially when you’re in a hurry and have no idea how much longer it will take. There is usually a simple lack of information. The solution: Always keep an eye on waiting times with modern displays
In an increasingly digitalized world where both security and ease of use are paramount, access control is evolving rapidly. Traditional access cards have had their place in many industries for years, but now a new generation of technologies is bringing the next stage of evolution: access control via smartphone and touch display. Especially in combination with elevator control systems, this opens up a wide range of innovative applications.
EU standard on the accessibility of publicly accessible buildings on its way into German law
In public buildings, video or display systems for visual emergency call communication in elevators will become mandatory in the near future. Operators are well advised to take the two-sense emergency call into account now during planning and implementation.
Barrier-free elevators are becoming standard – including the two-sense emergency call
The European standard EN 17210:2021 and the national DIN EN 18040 1-3:2024 are a milestone in the design of accessible elevators. These standards are guiding standards for barrier-free construction. As the scope covers all publicly accessible buildings, accessible elevators are becoming the standard in Europe.
Why the 2-sense emergency call in elevators is becoming the (global) standard
It is highly likely that the 2-sense emergency call will become the global standard. In some cases, elements of ASME A17.1-2019 have already been included in tenders for European construction projects.
