Smart lift can predict what floor you want to go the user Bashny.Net

Microsoft Research, a research division of Microsoft, showed the world recently its latest development — a "smart" lift. This lift can predict what floor you want to go and, of course, to give him a ride there. Of course, the device does not have the gift of clairvoyance – the first in over 3 months it should collect and analyze information about the behavior of each person and then to draw conclusions.



The Elevator has a set of different sensors, cameras, microphones with speech analyzer, etc., and therefore it can react to gestures and words. For example, can have a negative shake his head before the door opened and they closed.

Or, for example, if today in a conversation with a colleague you mentioned tomorrow's lunch at 12.00 tomorrow, using the Elevator near 12 hours, you can be assured that you will bring on the same floor where the cafe your company. Alas, it is not clear when the prototype will be implemented everywhere.
