Abstract: A voice-controlled elevator security system. Access to an elevator system servicing a plurality of landings of a structure is controlled by comparing a voice signal of a potential user of the elevator system with stored voice signals of all authorized users. The comparison is accomplished by first digitizing the potential user's voice signal and comparing it, on a bit-by-bit basis, with a digital representation of the voice signals of all authorized users. If the comparison satisfies an established criterion, the potential user is determined to be an authorized user. Once this determination has been made, the authorized user can initiate car call signals for those landings to which the authorized user is permitted access. An authorized user can also temporarily modify the previous digital representation of the voice signal when the authorized user is suffering from laryngeal indisposition.

Abstract translation: 语音控制电梯安全系统。 通过将电梯系统的潜在用户的语音信号与所有授权用户的存储语音信号进行比较来控制对服务于结构的多个着陆的电梯系统的访问。 比较是通过首先将潜在用户的语音信号数字化并且在逐位的基础上与所有授权用户的语音信号的数字表示进行比较来实现的。 如果比较满足已建立的标准，则潜在用户被确定为授权用户。 一旦做出了这一确定，授权用户可以启动允许授权用户访问的着陆的轿厢呼叫信号。 当授权用户患有喉部不适时，授权用户也可临时修改先前的语音信号数字表示。

Abstract: An elevator device includes a voice input device, a voice recognition device, a call registration device, and an announcement control device. Upon receipt of an announcement request for a second announcement having higher priority than a first announcement while the announcement control device is causing the announcement output device to output the first announcement, the announcement control device stops the first announcement and causes the announcement output device to output the second announcement. The announcement control device also determines whether the re-output of the first announcement is necessary. In the case where the announcement control device determines that the re-output of the first announcement is necessary, upon finish of the second announcement, the announcement control device causes the announcement output device to re-output the first announcement.

Abstract: An information and control system for personnel transport devices. In one embodiment, the information and control system is coupled to the elevator system of a building, and includes a touch panel input device, a flat panel display having a touch sensitive screen, and speech recognition and synthesis systems serving each elevator car. The speech recognition and synthesis systems and input device(s) are operatively coupled to a processor and storage devices having a plurality of different types of data stored thereon. Each elevator car is also a client connected to a LAN, WAN, intranet, or Internet, and capable of exchanging data with and retrieving data therefrom. Functions performed by the information and control system include a voice-actuated building directory, download of selected data to personal electronic devices (PEDs), monitoring of areas adjacent to the elevator car on destination floors, and control of lighting and security monitoring in selectable areas of destination floors. The system is also optionally fitted with an RFID interrogator/reader capable of recognizing RFID tags carried by passengers on the elevator, thereby granting access to various controlled locations automatically after password authentication. The RFID system also allows the authenticated passenger(s) to control utilities such as lighting and HVAC within specific zones on their destination floors. The information and control system is also optionally equipped with an occupancy estimating sub-system which allows elevator cars to bypass calling floors when their capacity is reached or exceeded.
