Safe for the Elderly and for People with Children
In the current rush to make cities barrier-free, escalators and moving sidewalks are indispensable forms of transportation for different situations in commercial facilities, railway stations, airports, etc. In addition to our quest for obtaining universal designs for escalators, Hitachi has achieved efficient operations with no wasted energy by detecting people’s movement as they board and alight, as well as periods of congestion. We will continue to further expand these activities.
