Abstract: According to one embodiment, an elevator system includes a camera, a passenger detection module and a controller. The camera is capable of imaging a particular range in a direction from a vicinity of a door of a car to a hall when the car arrives at the hall. The passenger detection module detects presence or absence of a passenger who intends to get into the car by focusing on movement of a movable body within a specific area by using a plurality of time-series continuous images which are captured by the camera. The controller controls an opening/closing operation of the door based on a detection result of the passenger detection module. A width of the area is being set greater than at least a width of the door.

Abstract: An elevator activation system provides virtual activation of one or more buttons by passengers. An optical sensor or time-of-flight camera is positioned near buttons of the elevator and projects an optical curtain over buttons of the elevator. Disturbances in the optical curtain are detected and an exact location of a disturbance in the optical curtain is communicated to a sensor controller which then virtually activates a button correlated to the particular location of the disturbance. The sensor controller communicates with an elevator controller such that the elevator is controlled based on the particular function activated in response to virtual activation of the button. The elevator activation system may further include a user feedback feature configured to signify to a passenger that a button has been virtually activated without physically contacting the button.

Abstract: An elevator device includes: a reader, a reader, a determination section, and a request output section. The reader is provided in a hall of an elevator. The reader is provided in a car of the elevator. In the case where identification information has been read by the reader, the determination section determines whether or not the identification information has been read by the reader before the reading thereof by the reader. On the basis of the identification information read by the reader, the request output section outputs a registration request for a call to a control section. In the case where the determination section determines that the identification information has been read by the reader, the request output section does not output a registration request for a call corresponding to the identification information to the control section.
