Smartphones

Hyundai Elevator Co., South Korea's No. 1 moving solutions provider, said Thursday it has developed a wireless control system that permits ordinary people to summon lifts using their smartphones.
The Hyundai Real Time Service (HRTS) 2.0 system aims to enhance the convenience of people living and working in high-rise buildings, who have to wait for some time to get a ride. The system, which can easily be used by downloading a dedicated app, can also reduce construction costs and allow real-time monitoring of elevators, the company said.
