Abstract

Followed by the fast developments in Internet of Things (IoT), artificial intelligence (AI) technologies, utilizing cloud architecture and big data, have been integrated into various aspects of our daily lives. Such an integration results in high levels of convenience, comfort, and energy savings. Deploying such new technologies benefits the elevator industry as well. Intelligent elevator with energy control schemes can improve the energy efficiency of eco-friendly applications. The purpose of this study is to examine the factors that affect the intelligent elevator adoption of Taiwanese people using the extended unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT 2) model, which considers factors such as environmental consciousness, artificial intelligence optimism, attitude, and perceived quality. A well-structured face-to-face survey is performed to obtain data from the consumers living in central Taiwan. The data acquired are analyzed via structural equation modeling using the partial least squares method. The analysis results indicate that attitude, habit, performance expectancy, effort expectancy, and perceived quality are important factors that affect the behavioral intentions of consumers when adopting new technologies, such as an intelligent elevator. However, facilitating conditions adversely affect the behavioral intentions. In addition, environmental consciousness and artificial intelligence optimism are crucial factors that affect performance and effort expectancies, whereas the latter two contribute positively to attitude. The findings of this study supplement existing literature regarding the behavioral intentions for adopting intelligent elevators. Finally, the theoretical and practical significances of this research study are discussed.
