In this design, we have three displays — displays in the elevator lobby (about 30” x 15” each) that will allow users to indicate what floor they want to go to, one display beside each elevator (1ft x 5ft) showing what floors the elevator will stop on and how long it will take the elevator to arrive, and also a display inside the elevator to indicate how long it will take the elevator to reach a certain floor and also which floors it will stop on.

Displays in elevator lobby
The displays in the elevator lobby will be scattered among the elevators in the area. Each display will give the user a way to indicate the floor they want an elevator to stop at. The display will also show the elevator that is assigned to stop at that floor on a map showing the layout of the elevators in the lobby and also how long it will take for that elevator to arrive. This display is impaired vision friendly since those with impaired vision can still easily indicate their floor without needing to feel around for Braille or learn the positions of buttons; also there is a speaker so that a visually impaired person can still figure out how to get to his or her appropriate elevator.
