LarsaruSsays...It's a *british invention
Developed by City University London professor Jack Levy
siftbotsays...Adding video to channels (British) - requested by LarsaruS.
Tymbrwulfsays...I don't really see where this would be a cost-effective solution on large-scale stairs which are a large distance apart as they tried to show in the video.
Small scale? Maybe.
EmptyFriendsays...Yeah I'm not sure how this is an advantage in any way, except for the rare case that you'd need the escalator to curve in the middle.
oxdottirsays...Look at the thumbnail. The simple case of an up escalator near a down one. Think about how much metal and hidden machinery you need for the traditional pair of escalators. Think about what you need for the one in the thumbnail. Fewer moving parts. Fewer belts. Less construction.
