摘要： An operation system performs autonomous operation by using an operation server for an autonomous driving vehicle. The operation server includes a memory unit containing three-dimensional map data. An autonomous driving vehicle connects to the operation server via a wireless network. A vehicle control unit creates a traveling route based on the map data received and, when an elevator of a building is to be used, creates elevator usage information and elevator control information, including the boarding and exiting floors. The elevator is equipped with an elevator control unit that is connected to the operation server to control ascending and descending of an elevator cage. A control unit of the autonomous driving vehicle transmits the elevator usage information and the elevator control information to the elevator control unit. The elevator control unit gives a voice announcement from a voice output unit in the elevator cage.

摘要： An elevator system includes a beacon adapted for broadcasting, when activated, a beacon signal to a mobile device carried by a user, a sensor device, and a controller adapted for selectively activating the beacon. A method for operating the elevator system includes capturing a capture of a user by the sensor device, the capture including capture data indicative of a user activity. The method further includes inferring, from the capture data, an intention data indicative of the user's intention to perform an elevator boarding, and, under the condition that the intention data indicates an intention of the user to perform an elevator boarding, activating the beacon to broadcast a beacon signal, and receiving, by the controller, an instruction signal sent by a mobile device upon having received the beacon signal.

摘要： A building system includes an elevator system installed in a building. First and second waiting zones for users of the elevator system are specified, wherein the second waiting zone is located in an access region to an elevator of the elevator system. The building system further includes a call input apparatus that receives an elevator call from a user located in the first waiting zone or in a fixed environment of the first waiting zone, and a control apparatus that is communicatively connected to the call input apparatus. In response to a call input from the first waiting zone, the control apparatus can either request the user to wait there until they are called to go into the second waiting zone or can request them to immediately enter the second waiting zone. An allocated elevator can be communicated to the user in the first or second waiting zone.

摘要： A method for operating an elevator system includes a trusted device that creates an authentication data packet having a unique, periodically changing code based on the current time. A mobile device sends a mobile request message to a server including the request for the operation of the elevator system and the authentication data packet. A server verifies the authenticity of the mobile request message based on the authentication data packet included in the mobile request message and, after the authentication data packet has been verified, sends an instruction message to the elevator controller.
