HSR Platform Height

Would anyone know what the platform height is for Taiwanese High Speed Trains? I am trying to find out if there is something like a world standard, which the USA should adopt also.

It looks neat.........though we haven't tried HSR yet caused our Taiwan family trip was just only in Taipei. Maybe if we go cross-country in the future (i.e. going to Kaoshiung), then maybe we might give it a try

.

P.S.
I wanted to suggest for THSR to install automatic platform gates in their stations.......BUT

I thought that they should only do once they start making profit.
