A system and a method of notifying a user of an elevator assignment are provided. The method includes receiving, from an input device, an elevator call at an elevator controller from a user, calling, using the elevator controller, an elevator car based on the elevator call, generating, using the elevator controller, a call notification, receiving the call notification at a plurality of displays, and displaying the call notification on the plurality of displays based on a display parameter.

A guidance content determining unit which determines first guidance content which is content represented to a user in a car on the basis of a situation in an elevator landing detected by a landing situation detecting unit and determines second guidance content being content represented to a user in the elevator landing on the basis of a situation in the car detected by an in-car situation detecting unit is provided, a guidance presenting unit presents the first guidance content determined by the guidance content determining unit to the user in the car, and a guidance presenting unit presents the second guidance content determined by the guidance content determining unit to the user in the elevator landing.

To appropriately guide a subject person while protecting a privacy of the subject person despite use of an captured image of the subject person, a guidance system includes: an image capturing unit capable of capturing an image containing a subject person from a first direction; a detection unit that detects a size of an image of the subject person from the image captured by the image capturing unit; and a guidance unit that provides guidance for the subject person based on a detection result of the detection unit.

The invention refers to a passenger transport system having a plurality of passenger transporters controlled by an transport system control, which passenger transport system further comprises at least one parameter memory configured to store at least one parameter or parameter set for the function of at least one transport system component, which transport system comprises at least one first wireless interface, which first interface is configured to input data regarding at least one stored parameter or parameter set for the function of the related transport system component(s). The passenger transport system comprises mobile devices carried by users, which mobile devices are configured to communicate wirelessly with the first interface, which communication is based on a short range transmission. The mobile devices are configured to be prompted by the first interface to transmit data regarding the parameter or parameter set of the correlated transport system component. The invention allows the customizing of a passenger system interaction with a user to individual user requirements.

Provided is an elevator device, including: a cage; a car entrance frame including: entrance columns provided at a car entrance of the cage; and an entrance top plate provided on a top side of the car entrance; a car door configured to open and close the car entrance; a projector, which is provided to the car entrance frame so as to be capable of projecting information onto an image display surface provided at a landing when the car door is opened upon arrival of a car at the landing; and a control device configured to control respective operations of the car door and the projector. When the control device controls the car door to open, the control device controls the projector to project the information onto the image display surface.

An elevator request authorization system for use in a building in which an elevator system services a plurality of floors is provided. The elevator request authorization system includes one or more servers receptive of an elevator request of a user and configured to authenticate the elevator request and to append credential data thereto in accordance with a result of the authentication and an access control system to which the elevator request appended with the credential data is passed from the one or more servers. The access control system is configured to determine which floors of the plurality of floors the user is authorized to visit based on the credential data with an elevator car being assignable to service the elevator request in accordance with a determination result.

A passenger guidance system, elevator system, and passenger guidance method for elevators. The passenger guidance system includes: a sensor, arranged to collect object feature data of a passenger going towards an elevator; a processing device, in communication with the sensor and an elevator system, for receiving the object feature data and comparing the object feature data with stored passenger information to learn information of a target floor of a successfully matched passenger, and learning a target elevator currently dispatched corresponding to the target floor according to elevator running information of the elevator system; and a guidance device, in communication with the processing device, for forming a sign to at least guide the successfully matched passenger to go towards the target elevator. The present invention can be applied to humanistically and intelligently guide the passenger to reach the target elevator, and bring good elevator taking experience to users.

The present invention relates to a method and projection display apparatus for presenting information in a space. Projected images are dynamically adjusted based on detection of changes in the space, determining a level of crowdedness in the space and/or detecting a failure of projection.

A method and system of dynamically displaying information to a user is disclosed. A user's location is sensed. Customized information is displayed to the user at a location that is in proximity to the user. The customized information moves as the as the user changes location.
