⚡ Emergency-Power-Cut-Detection-with-Automatic-Nearest-Floor-Rescue - Safe Elevator Landing on Power Loss
Emergency-Power-Cut-Detection-with-Automatic-Nearest-Floor-Rescue is an elevator safety app that responds to sudden power loss. It detects the outage and starts an automatic nearest-floor landing so passengers are not left stuck between floors.
The app is built for Windows users who want a simple way to run the system from a GitHub release. It helps support safe evacuation during an unexpected power cut and reduces the risk of a stalled elevator car.

This application is designed to help elevator systems respond to a power cut in a safe way. It can:
- Detect a sudden loss of power
- Trigger a move to the nearest floor
- Support safer passenger exit

The app watches for a sudden power failure event. When it detects a loss of power, it moves into rescue mode and sends the elevator to the nearest floor. That gives passengers a better chance to exit safely and keeps the cabin from stopping in an unsafe spot.
The flow is simple:
- Power loss happens
- The app detects the event
- The rescue action starts
- The elevator moves to the nearest floor
- The doors can open for safe exit
