Wonder if they'd use a current threshold for determining if someone is on the escalator?

I'm actually a retired electrical engineer, used to do aircraft avionics. Anyway it's a simple thing to measure amperage loading on the motor to set a threshold for sleep and wake. But in engineering there's always more than one way to accomplish a task. An optical sensor and timer would be another way to do it.
A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
