CONFIGURATION OF ENTRANCE SYSTEMS HAVING ONE OR MORE MOVABLE DOOR MEMBERS
An entrance system (1) is disclosed which has a movable door member (10; DM1 . . . DMm) having a door leaf (12) with a first vertical edge (14L) and a second vertical edge (14S). An automatic door operator (30) with a motor (34) is capable of causing movement of the door member (10; DM1 . . . DMm). A sensor unit (300; S1) is provided for monitoring a zone (Z1) at or near the door leaf (12) for presence or activity of a person or object. The sensor unit (300) is designed for capturing (710) an image of an external object (380) at the first vertical edge (14L) of the door leaf (12), and processing (720) the captured image to identify an optical code (360) and recognize a learning mode trigger instruction (370) encoded therein. Triggered by the recognizing of the learning mode trigger instruction (370), a learning mode (352) of the sensor unit (300; S1) is automatically entered into step (730). In the learning mode (352), as entered when triggered by the recognizing of the learning mode trigger instruction (370), a distance (D1) between the sensor unit (300; S1) and the external object (380) at the first vertical edge (14L) is automatically measured (740), and a field width parameter value (FW) of the sensor unit (300; S1) is set based on the measured distance (D1).
SELF-LEARNING GATE PADDLES FOR SAFE OPERATION
A system and method for self-learning operation of gate paddles is disclosed. Opening and closing of the gate paddles requires timing and other settings to avoid injury and fare evasion. Self-learning allows a machine learning model to adapt to new data dynamically. The new data captured at a fare gate improves the machine learning model, which can be shared the other similar fare gates within a transit system so that learning disseminates.
INQUIRY PROCESSING DEVICE AND INQUIRY PROCESSING METHOD
An inquiry processing device includes: an automatic door information recorder that records information including past inquiry information from a customer regarding an automatic door, an operation situation, and quality information; a countermeasure presenter that presents recommended countermeasure information corresponding to a new inquiry regarding the automatic door by an extraction algorithm; a feedback information receiver that receives feedback information on whether or not a defect of the automatic door has been removed by taking measures on the basis of the recommended countermeasure information; a learner that updates the extraction algorithm of the countermeasure presenter on the basis of the feedback information; and a countermeasure presentation determiner that causes the countermeasure presenter to present new recommended countermeasure information by the extraction algorithm updated by the learner, when it is determined that the defect of the automatic door has not been removed.
Controlling Vehicles in Response to Windows
Systems, methods and computer readable media for controlling vehicles in response to windows are provided. One or more images captured using one or more image sensors from an environment of a vehicle may be obtained. The one or more images may be analyzed to detect a first window in the environment. The vehicle may be navigated to a stopping position, where in the stopping position a window of the vehicle may be positioned at a selected position with respect to the first window.
Electronic door system
An electronic door system is disclosed for a door that selectively closes a door opening of a building structure. The electronic door system includes two or more of a gyroscope that senses angular velocity of the door, an accelerometer that senses acceleration of the door, a capacitive sensor that capacitively senses the building structure, or a microphone that senses sound of the door. The electronic door system also includes a controller that assesses a physical position of the door according to the two or more of the gyroscope, the accelerometer, the capacitive sensor, or the microphone.
Swing door-based entrance system with automatic recognition of linkage reduction
An entrance system (1) comprises a swing door member (10) having a door leaf (12), and a sensor unit (S1; S) mounted to the door leaf (12), the sensor unit comprising a door angle sensor (S1). The entrance system (1) further comprises an automatic door operator (30) having a motor (34) capable of causing movement of the door member (10), a controller (31) for controlling operation of the motor (34), and a linkage (40) connected to the automatic door operator (30) and the door leaf (12) for transferring torque generated by the motor (34) to the door leaf (12). The automatic door operator (30) is operable in a learn mode (60) and an operational mode (70). In the learn mode (60), the controller establishes a linkage reduction curve (65) relating a movement of said door member (10) with the torque required to move the door leaf (12) through different angles (). The door leaf angles are determined from measurement readings of said door angle sensor (S1). In the operational mode (70), the controller compensates for a non-linear torque transfer characteristic of the linkage (40) by applying the linkage reduction curve (65) to control the motor (34).
