據報道，印度一名16歲的數學及物理學學生穆罕默德奧馬爾罕（Mohammed Omar Khan）發明了一款無接觸電梯按鍵APP，以防止新冠病毒肺炎疫情的傳播。該款APP安裝在他親戚家里，通過物聯網系統，這款APP“穩定耐用，可以輕松地安裝在任意的電梯設備上”。就像其他大的電梯制造商一樣，這款APP讓使用者通過智能手機操控電梯，而不用使用按鍵，適用于公寓、辦公樓、商場及別墅鐘的電梯設備。該學生已獲得國內和邦內的多項獎項，他說希望可以成為已故的印度航天科學家及政治家A.P.J.阿卜杜勒卡拉姆那樣的人。

INDIAN TEEN INVENTS TOUCH-FREE ELEVATOR BUTTON APP

Mohammed Omar Khan, a 16-year-old math and physics student in India, invented his own touch-free elevator button app aimed at preventing the spread of COVID-19, The Siasat Daily report. Installed at his relatives’ house, the Internet of Things-based app “is robust and can be installed in any elevator easily.” Like those provided by the big OEMs, the app allows users to operate elevators from their smartphones without touching buttons, and can be used in units serving apartments, offices, malls and single-family homes. Khan has received several state and national awards. He says he aims to follow in the footsteps of the late Indian aerospace scientist and politician A.P.J. Abdul Kalam.
