INDIA’S JOHNSON LIFTS MANUFACTURING TOUCHLESS TECH

     Johnson Lifts, an Indian OEM, has released app and foot-controlled elevator calling systems to operate lifts without touching the buttons, the company recently told The Hindu. The EyeRIS app connects the user’s smartphone with the lift system using QR-code technology. The user needs only to indicate the “present floor” and “destination floor” in the app. The foot-operated calling system was designed and installed for Chennai Metro. Johnson Executive Director V. Jagannathan said such technology is “crucial in these times when COVID-19 is forcing us to look at our lives differently.”
