Key Points

Sliding Doors at all floors. No motor. The cabin motorized sliding door moves them when cabin is behind the door
Miniature magnetic sensors and very small magnets
Floor-Panel with keys and display at all floors
Cabin with sliding door that moves the floor doors
light Inside cabin
Multi cabin: 2 cabins is minimum, but 4 seems the best
Cabin keyboard...not inside cabin. Cabin is a miniature, while keyboard has normal dimensions
Number of floors: The more the better, minimum is 4 floors, best is more than 8: 10 floors.
Number of floors multiplied with number of cabins makes a rather big number of floor panels needed.
Maybe a good idea to have parallel bus to avoid the cost of floor boards, combined with some floors with can-bus boards.
