By scanning the “Shanghai smart elevator” code, riders can access basic information about the elevator, such as its location, to report problems. If trapped, they can alert authorities, property management staff and maintenance and repair workers by scanning the code and then entering the city's intelligent elevator-monitoring system. The system allows users to check the rescue process in real time and track rescue workers via their cellphones. "The whole process is visible, which will ease their anxiety while waiting," said Zhang Yusong of the Shanghai Administration for Market Regulation.
