Embodiment Construction

[0021] A rail vehicle 1 is shown, which is constructed with technical devices for control. The device comprises an image recognition device 2 and an RFID (Radio Frequency Identification, radio frequency identification) receiver 3 , the output signal of which is transmitted to an evaluation device 4 . The RFID receiver 3 works together with an RFID transmitter 5 carried by an operator 6 . In the exemplary embodiment, the operator 6 is located outside the rail vehicle 1 . The rail vehicle 1 is controlled by an operator 6 transmitting control commands in the form of gesture movements via the image recognition device 2 to the evaluation device 4 . Instead of operating elements, such as keyboards, joysticks or switches, evaluation device 4 intervenes directly in the control process of rail vehicle 1 , for example by acting on a speed control device or a brake device. In the exemplary embodiment, the operator 6 has already spread his arms, whereby the image recognition device 2 co...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for controlling a process, more particularly a railway operation process, by means of at least one control command, and to a related system. In order to achieve a high level of operating safety without control elements that must be operated manually such as keyboards and switches, the invention provides that the control command is generated when an image recognition device (2) recognizes that an operator (6) is executing a gestural movement assigned to the control command and the operator (6) is authenticated by a process-associated RFID receiver (3) by means of an operator-associated RFID transmitter (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for controlling a process, in particular a railway operation process, by means of at least one control command, and a system for controlling a railway operation device. [0002] The following description basically relates to the control of railway operating processes, but the invention is not limited to this particular application. Instead, applications in various types of processes are conceivable, for example in the industrial sector or for traffic control with any type of vehicle. Background technique [0003] The railway operating system to be controlled includes various devices, from the vehicle to the control center. [0004] Control commands are mainly entered manually into the operating device by means of a keyboard, mouse clicks or a touch screen. A rail vehicle controlled by an operator located in the driver's cab of the rail vehicle must operate operating elements provided for the control, for example in t...
