About This Exhibit

The smart stairlift represents the latest evolution in home accessibility, integrating Internet of Things (IoT) technology for remote monitoring, diagnostics, and control. Manufacturers began incorporating these features around 2020, driven by advances in low-power connectivity.

Modern smart stairlifts can report their status to cloud platforms, alerting service providers to potential issues before they become problems. Family members can receive notifications confirming their loved one is using the stairlift safely.

Voice control integration with Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant allows hands-free operation. Smartphone apps provide usage statistics and can summon the stairlift remotely.
