The elevator already contains a Funduino MEGA 2560 R3 microcontroller, which can control the elevator fully automatically when programmed accordingly. The required Arduino software is an open-source application that can be installed free of charge on any number of computers, including in schools. This makes the system versatile and cost-effective for use in lessons.
