An elevator system is provided. The system comprises a first acquisition unit that acquires an image in a car of an elevator and an image of a landing of the elevator; a first generation unit that generates first learning data from the acquired images; a learning unit that performs learning using the first learning data, thereby generating a first learned model; a second generation unit that generates input data from a new image; an estimation unit that estimates, by applying the input data to the first learned model, whether the person on the landing of the elevator, which is included in the new image, gets in the elevator; and a control unit that controls an operation of the elevator based on an estimation result.

In an elevator System with a destination call control device, a first destination call being input on a floor by a first passenger at a first point in time is evaluated in order to determine first call information comprising data on a call input floor and/or a destination floor. The first call information determines if a number of additional passengers are to be assigned to the first destination call resulting in an additional space requirement in an elevator car handling the first destination call. Information on the additional space requirement is generated if a number of additional passengers are to be assigned to the first destination call. If this is the case, the first destination call is allocated with the aid of an allocation algorithm by using information on the additional space requirement in order to transport the first passenger from the call input floor to the destination floor.

The invention relates to a method for controlling a passenger transport system, which transport system comprises at least two passenger conveyors, as e.g. escalators or elevators, which transport system comprises a control for the passenger conveyors and for controlling passenger flow in the transport system. The control is connected to a passenger flow determination device for establishing a passenger flow reference value of the actual passenger flow to be expected in the passenger transport system, and which control further comprises a passenger guide system for controlling passenger flow in the transport system, which passenger guide system uses a cost function considering a set of system control parameters as passenger riding time, energy consumption, passenger waiting time, passenger transport capacity, maintenance demand, etc. The control uses a transport model simulating the function of the hardware components of the transport system under consideration of correlated system operating parameters as e.g. number of active passenger conveyors, passenger conveyor speed, still-stand times, door opening times etc. in connection with passenger flow, whereby the passenger flow reference value is input to the transport model and in an optimization process the system operating parameters are optimized under use of the transport model to meet the passenger flow reference value under consideration of at least one significant system control parameter from said set of system control parameters to achieve a best set of system operating parameters. The best set of system operating parameters is applied to the control of the passenger transport system.

A method includes creating an account with an elevator system; assigning a primary user to the account; assigning a secondary user to the account; associating elevator access privileges to the secondary user, the elevator access privileges including floors of a building that the secondary user can access via the elevator system.

A method of reassigning an elevator call for an elevator car comprising: receiving an elevator call from a mobile device, the elevator call including a destination request to travel from a boarding floor to a destination floor; assigning a first elevator car to the elevator call; activating an alert on the mobile device that the first elevator car has been assigned to the elevator call; determining that the first elevator car cannot serve the elevator call; assigning a second elevator car to the elevator call; and activating an alert on the mobile device indicating that the second elevator car has been assigned to the elevator call.

A method of reassigning an elevator call for an elevator car comprising: receiving an elevator call from a mobile device, the elevator call comprising a destination request to travel to a destination floor; assigning a first elevator car to the elevator call; determining that the first elevator car cannot serve the elevator call; activating an alert on the mobile device to enter any elevator car; detecting whether the mobile device enters a second elevator car; and assigning the second elevator car to the elevator call.

A system and a method for detecting passenger movement, an elevator-calling control method, a readable storage medium and an elevator system are provided by the present disclosure. The system for detecting passenger movement includes: a Bluetooth matrix installed in an elevator landing area, the Bluetooth matrix including at least three Bluetooth modules, and each of the Bluetooth modules being configured to broadcast a Bluetooth signal to the elevator landing area respectively; wherein the system for detecting passenger movement acquires location information of a passenger carrying a personal mobile terminal by using Bluetooth signals broadcast by at least three Bluetooth modules; the system for detecting passenger movement further includes: a movement prediction unit configured to fit a movement trajectory of the passenger in the elevator landing area based on multiple sets of the location information, and predict the movement trajectory to be a calling trajectory or a non-calling trajectory.

According to an aspect, a method includes receiving a passenger request to reserve an elevator car of an elevator system to travel to a targeted destination. At least two different travel options to the targeted destination are determined based on a plurality of elevator car travel plans comprising at least two elevator cars having different travel ranges. The at least two different travel options are output to an interactive display. At least one of the at least two elevator cars is reserved responsive to a user selection of one of the at least two different travel options.

A method of controlling access to a building is provided. The method comprising: receiving visitor contact information for a visitor from a resident device, the visitor contact information identifies a visitor device of the visitor; receiving visitor access permissions for the visitor from the resident device, the visitor access permissions include at least one of a selected elevator car, a selected door, and a selected floor; and granting the visitor device access to at least one of the selected elevator car, the selected door, and the selected floor.
