We’d Hate to Keep You Waiting
Hitachi has developed a control algorithm to reduce the amount of time people are kept waiting for elevators. The system predicts the hours that the elevator will be used most and arranges the cars accordingly, making it seem as if they knew you were about to arrive. Responding to elevator demand that fluctuates in accordance with the time of day, Hitachi is aiming at a transportation environment that will satisfy as many users as possible.
