INTRODUCTION
A totally new concept in residential elevators. The first elevator designed to retrofit existing homes on an outside wall or deck. No shaft enclosure or major structural modifications are required. The system places virtually no loads on the building structure.

The relevé elevator is driven by synchronous, clean energy transfer. Power comes from self-contained lithium-ion power cells. There are no high pressure hydraulic components, no extra mechanical room, no high powered winch motor and no winding cable drums. Up and down movement is quiet and smooth. A very small amount of external power keeps the system charged and ready. All critical components are fault redundant and multiple braking systems are employed to make the system extremely safe.

Finally, the relevé elevator features a sleek, low cost, modern design resembling the atrium glass elevators common in luxury hotels.

A totally different residential elevator solution:

• Affordable
• Outdoor installation
• No elevator shaft
• Non-visible lift system
• Self powered
• High reliability
• Safe

Notice:
The relevé elevator is not for sale at this time. However, the project has been in development at iVideoTrack for the last two years and the concept described herein is ready for "prototype" development when funding becomes available. Many variations of the basic concept have been evaluated. If you are interested in this project or would like to comment on the approach, please send your input to:
