The present invention relates to automatic elevator call control, and belongs to the field of elevator intelligent control technologies. An automatic elevator call system provided in the present invention calculates duration information from the moment when the personal mobile terminal leaves coverage of the wireless signal to the moment when the personal mobile terminal enters the coverage again, and when the duration information is less than or equal to a preset time threshold, causes the personal mobile terminal to be incapable of automatically sending an elevator call request command in a time period from the moment when the personal mobile terminal enters the coverage again to the moment when the personal mobile terminal leaves the coverage again. The present invention can effectively avoid invalid or abnormal elevator call request operations, and the elevator system achieves high running efficiency.

An automatic elevator call system includes: a wireless signal apparatus installed in an elevator landing zone of an elevator system and broadcasting a corresponding wireless signal around; a counting unit configured to count, after an elevator call request corresponding to an identity of the personal mobile terminal is sent or received, the number of times the elevator call request corresponding to the identity is made within a predetermined time period; and an abnormal elevator call request judgment unit configured to judge, based on a comparison result between the number of times the elevator call request is made and a predetermined threshold, whether the elevator call request corresponding to the identity is a normal elevator call request operation. The present invention can effectively determine an intentional or unintentional abnormal elevator call request operation of a passenger.

A wireless signal device, a system and a method for an elevator service request are provided, which belong to the field of elevator technologies. The wireless signal device according to the present invention is mounted in a landing zone and receives an elevator service request command from a personal mobile terminal. The wireless signal device comprises a service control unit configured to, in an elevator dispatching service process arranged in response to a first elevator service request command received previously, disable the elevator controller from responding to a second elevator service request command received later for controlling the elevator dispatching service in the elevator dispatching service process if the second elevator service request command has the same elevator call direction as the first elevator service request command.

Provided are embodiment for a method and a system for filtering unintended requests. The embodiments can include receiving an input to disable an elevator lock for an elevator car, and determining whether to unlock the elevator lock. The embodiments can also include unlocking the elevator lock based at least in part on the determination and permitting or prohibiting motion of the elevator car responsive to the determination.

A method for operating an elevator and an operating panel for an elevator for carrying out the method, as well as an elevator having such an operating panel, include an operating panel having a plurality of capacitive buttons and a control unit that evaluates a change in capacitance of the capacitive buttons in order to detect an actuation of the button. If an actuation of a first button is detected, the actuation duration of this first button exceeds a predetermined first time period, and an actuation of at least one second button arranged adjacent to the first button is detected, the actuation of the first button is then controlled on the basis of a change in capacitance of the actuated second button such that the control unit cancels the actuation of the first button if the actuation of the second button continues during a predetermined check period.

A control device, a method for preventing false triggering of a control device, and an elevator system. The control device includes: a control panel, which includes a plurality of buttons, each of the plurality of buttons being capable of sensing the approaching of an object in a non-contact manner; and a processor, which is connected to the control panel to receive signals sent by the plurality of buttons when the approaching of an object is sensed; wherein the processor is configured to, when receiving signals sent by at least two adjacent buttons of the plurality of buttons within a defined time period, not execute an operation corresponding to the signals.

Systems and methods for control systems for facilitating situational awareness of a vehicle are provided. Sensors located around a vehicle may detect moving objects located in one or more vehicle blind spots. These moving objects pose potentially dangerous situations for the vehicle occupants and for the object. The sensors may further determine that the moving object is a cyclist approaching a vehicle blind spot, and that the vehicle is parked. Processors associated with the vehicle may then direct a corrective action, such as automatically locking the vehicle doors, to prevent a vehicle-cyclist collision. The systems and methods provided herein may thereby make these and similar situations safer.

According to one embodiment, a computer-implemented method for preventing an unintended call for a conveyance apparatus of a conveyance system is provided. The conveyance system comprising a first location device and a second location device. The computer-implemented method comprising: detecting a first interaction between the mobile device and the first location device; determining a travel direction of the first mobile device; and automatically filtering a second interaction between the mobile device and a second location device to prevent an unintended call to a conveyance apparatus in response to the travel direction of the mobile device.

Provided are embodiments of a method for operating a receiverless device positioning. The method includes receiving a first request corresponding to a first location, registering data associated with the first request, and receiving a second request at a second location, the first location is different than the second location. The method also includes comparing the first and second location, and time between the first request and the second request, and allowing the second request based at least in part on the comparison. Also provided are embodiments of a system configured to perform receiverless positioning.

An automatic alarm system for a vehicle includes a sensor adapted to detect electromagnetic data, a computer system, and an automatic alarm mechanism. The computer system receives data from the sensor. A computer processor compares the electromagnetic data detected by the sensor with known patterns of electromagnetic data emitted by emergency vehicles that are stored in a library. The automatic alarm mechanism activates in response to the processor determining that the comparison matches a known pattern of electromagnetic data for an emergency vehicle resulting in the computer processor sending a first signal to activate an alarm of the vehicle.
