Intelligent Lift Door Inspector: Automated Inspection of Lift Doors
Date:
Abstract: There are thousands of skyscrapers can be found around the world and over 1300 of which in Hong Kong are standing over 100 m tall. Lift is in no doubt an essential mode of transportation in our daily life. Here we note the traditional way of lift doors inspection is unsafe, tedious and time consuming which cause long service outage. Imagine a lift worker need to inspect over 40 lift landing doors under an inspection speed in their routine maintenance for such kind of tall buildings. It takes forever to complete the works.
We, therefore, proposed the solution of Intelligent Lift Door Inspector, which is specifically designed for lift doors inspection. It is automated, no interruption of service, and no human interface is required. The maintenance time could possibly be reduced as much as 50% if less lift doors to be inspected. It is designed to enhance the human safety at work and increase the availability of lifts. Also, the service down time compared with the traditional way can be greatly reduced upto 50% for tall buildings.
