The Crystal Mover is a rubber-tired automated people mover system for airport and urban rail transit applications, manufactured by Mitsubishi Heavy Industries at its Mihara Machinery Works in Mihara, Hiroshima Prefecture, Japan. Initially based on the Japanese APM standard, it is used in automated guideway transit systems in China, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, the United Arab Emirates and the United States, among them the Sengkang and Punggol LRT lines in Singapore, the Macau Light Transit System and airport systems at Hong Kong, Changi, Incheon, Dubai Terminal 3, Dulles, Atlanta, Miami, Orlando and Tampa. The example configuration given for the original C810 was a single or double car carrying 105 or 210 passengers, each car 11.20 metres long and drawing 750 volts direct current from a third rail, with a design speed of 80 kilometres an hour. Since the 2010s the company has built a successor family branded Urbanismo, which includes the higher-speed Urbanismo Super AGT with a top speed of 120 kilometres an hour.
