E-Motive Pte Ltd of Singapore has introduced to the Middle East an information system that allows building managers to have complete control of the information being shown on screens in their elevators.

Called EAVIS (Elevator Audio Video Information System), it is pitched as the next generation of LCD screens for use in elevators. “With EAVIS, E-Motive provides operators with the ability to offer customers complete floor directories, TV feed, video clips, animations, still ads, stock market information and fixed and variable messages as well as the time, date and temperature readings, all of which are automatically updated,” the company said.

“Unlike other systems, EAVIS is interfaced to the elevator controller and shows the elevator’s floor position and direction. With a variety of screen sizes and mounting options available, it is both versatile and simple to install,” E-Motive said.

“EAVIS features groundbreaking user-friendly scheduling software that runs on MS Windows, enabling building personnel to schedule multiple communication events that are initiated either at floor arrival or by the time of day. Other applications include visual information systems for lobbies and hallways.”
