The Levytator

Why do I suspect that when this is put to practical use the results will be extremely annoying?

Wonderful. They've combined the escalator with that dystopian icon, the moving sidewalk.

R. Daneel Olivaw and Louis Wu are, of course, unavailable for comment.

...What.

It's a new design of escalator that allows for curves. It is not a sure-fire harbinger of Brave New World. I don't understand how you would go from one to the other.

I do see a problem with this design, though; if one part of the system fails, then both the up and down sections of the escalator stop working.

Or, rather, they become stairs. So not that much of a problem.
