🚨 Emergency-Power-Cut-Detection-with-Automatic-Nearest-Floor-Rescue - Safer Lift Recovery When Power Fails
This app helps an elevator respond to an emergency power cut. It watches for power failure, then moves the lift to the nearest floor so people can leave safely.
It is built for windows and is meant for end users who need a simple way to run the safety tool from the linked GitHub page.
Use this link to visit the page to download the app:
