In the wake of the Corona disaster, there is a growing movement to introduce "non-contact" technology that can be operated without directly touching buttons such as intercoms and elevators in condominiums and other condominiums.

Of these, Daiwa House Industry began a demonstration experiment of a non-contact intercom from this month in collaboration with a major electrical equipment manufacturer and a display development company.

The intercom installed at the entrance of the model room of the condominium in Kawasaki City has a screen that emerges in the air a few centimeters above the display, and numbers and call buttons are displayed.



Then, the infrared sensor detects the movement of the finger and can be operated as if the button was actually pressed.



We will conduct demonstration experiments for the next six months to confirm operability and durability, and aim to commercialize it after that.



Mr. Kazuhiko Seguchi of the Daiwa House Industrial Condominium Business Headquarters said, "As the use of home delivery increases, the issue was how to promote non-contact. I want to aim for non-contact. "



In addition, Mitsui Fudosan Residential is a condominium under construction in Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, and plans to introduce an elevator that can be operated without directly touching the button. The movement to introduce the technology of is spreading.
