NZ Technologies Inc. (NZTech) is a technology company specializing in the design and manufacture of advanced Human Machine Interaction (HMI) products with applications in various industrial and medical sectors.
The COVID-19 pandemic has placed unprecedented constraints on the way people move in open and closed spaces. It has redefined the way in which we interact with the environment, other people, and even objects around us. At the onset of the pandemic, surfaces were among the first sources believed and confirmed to pose contamination risks.
A Vancouver company is adapting some of their cutting-edge medical technology to help everybody keep their hands clean. When the pandemic hit they realized that equipment could have wider uses and now their prototype touch-free elevator is in action — at Ronald MacDonald House.
VANCOUVER — Imagine being able to use an elevator without ever pressing a button – all you have to do is point, or wave.
It sounds like something out of Star Trek, but a Vancouver medical technology company has developed a touchless control system for elevators called HoverTap, that can be retrofitted onto traditional elevator button panels.
NZ Technologies Inc. (NZTech) is a technology innovation and electro-mechanical device production firm, focused on revolutionizing modern Human Machine Interfaces (HMI).
