Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of elevators, and in particular to an elevator automatic control method, an elevator automatic control device, an electronic device, and a computer-readable medium. Background Art

[0002] Video acquisition and analysis technology has gradually begun to be applied to elevator control technology. Through cameras installed in the elevator lobby or elevator car, the number of passengers in the elevator lobby and elevator car, passenger classification and other status are detected, and the information is transmitted to the elevator control system or group control system. The elevator control system or group control system makes better control actions based on the passenger information in the elevator lobby or elevator car and the current status of the elevator.

[0003] For example, when the number of passengers in a floor's elevator lobby exceeds the capacity of a single elevator, an additional elevator is added to serve that floor. When a passenger enters the lobby, a hall call for that floor is automatically registered. When the elevator car's passenger compartment is mostly occupied and no new passengers can enter, but the car has not reached overload status, the car is automatically forced to enter a fully loaded, direct-drive state. Passenger identity recognition can also be configured to automatically enable floor access registration and other functions.

[0004] Video capture and analysis detects passengers entering an elevator lobby equipped with an automatic elevator call function. When the captured image shows a passenger entering the elevator lobby, a hall call for that floor is automatically registered. However, this function can only register a single up / down hall call according to the pre-set settings, which may not always match the actual passenger's elevator needs.

[0005] Video capture and analysis, combined with passenger identification, automatically grants in-car floor registration permissions. However, if multiple passengers operate simultaneously, this can lead to overlapping releases of intercom restrictions, allowing passengers to register for other passengers' authorized floors, causing confusion in permission management.

[0053] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0054] Reference Figure 1, showing a schematic diagram of functional area division of an elevator lobby provided in an embodiment of the present invention;

[0055] Reference Figure 2 , showing a schematic diagram of the functional area division of a car provided in an embodiment of the present invention;

[0056] In an embodiment of the present invention, the elevator lobby and the elevator car can be divided into functional areas according to the different functions that the elevator lobby and the elevator car can provide and / or the various elevator needs of the passengers. The elevator lobby and the elevator car can be divided into grids respectively. The elevator lobby can be divided into an elevator lobby entrance area, waiting areas for each elevator car, and an intermediate waiting area that does not belong to any elevator car according to different grid positions. The elevator car can be divided into a floor registration area, an internal elevator area, and an exit elevator area according to different grid positions. In addition, the user needs can be predicted based on the changes in the passengers' positions in these functional areas at different times, so that the elevator can be controlled to automatically provide services to the users.

[0057] Specifically, you can first use grids to divide the elevator lobby and elevator car into individual grids. Then, you can divide these grids into regions. That is, according to each function that the elevator lobby and elevator car can provide and / or each passenger's elevator travel needs, you can divide a portion of the grids into a whole to obtain a functional area.

[0058] For example, the part of the grid near the elevator lobby entrance can be divided into a whole. The locations of these grids are the areas where passengers pass through when entering and exiting the elevator lobby, so they can be used as the elevator lobby entrance area. When passengers enter this area, it can be judged that the passengers have a tendency to enter the elevator lobby; the part of the grid directly opposite the elevator car can be divided into a whole corresponding to each car. The locations of these grids are the areas where passengers pass through when entering each car, so they can be used as the waiting areas for each car number. When passengers enter the waiting areas for each car number, it can be judged that the passengers have a tendency to enter the car corresponding to the waiting area for the car number; the other grids in the elevator lobby except the elevator lobby entrance area and the waiting areas for each car number can be divided into a whole as an intermediate waiting area that does not belong to any car number. When passengers enter this area, it can be judged that the passengers have no intention of taking the elevator for the time being.

[0059] For example, the grids near the car door, that is, the part near the car entrance and exit, can be divided into a whole. The locations of these grids are the areas where passengers enter and exit the car, so they can be used as the exit elevator area. When passengers enter this area, it can be judged that the passengers have a tendency to enter and exit the car; the grids near the operation box can be divided into a whole. The locations of these grids are the areas where passengers operate the operation box, so they can be used as the floor registration area. When passengers enter this area, it can be judged that the passengers have a tendency to register the destination floor; the other grids in the elevator lobby except the exit elevator area and the floor registration area can be divided into a whole as the internal elevator area. When passengers enter this area, it can be judged that the passengers have no intention to register the destination floor and enter and exit the car for the time being.

[0060] Reference Figure 3 , shows a flowchart of the steps of an elevator automatic control method provided in an embodiment of the present invention, which may specifically include the following steps:

[0061] Step 301: Real-time acquisition of video images of the elevator lobby and the elevator car;

[0062] In an embodiment of the present invention, video images of the elevator lobby and the elevator car can be collected in real time, so that the behavioral trends of passengers in the elevator lobby and the elevator car can be further analyzed to provide passengers with services that meet their needs.

[0063] Step 302: Analyze the behavior trends of passengers in the video images of the elevator lobby and the elevator car according to the functional areas of the elevator lobby and the functional areas of the elevator car, and control the elevator car to provide services according to the behavior trends.

[0064] In an embodiment of the present invention, the elevator lobby is divided into functional areas such as the elevator lobby entrance area, waiting areas for each elevator machine, and an intermediate waiting area that does not belong to any elevator machine. The elevator car is divided into functional areas such as the floor registration area, the internal elevator area, and the exit elevator area. Therefore, the behavioral trends of passengers in the elevator lobby video images and the elevator car video images can be analyzed based on these functional areas. Based on these behavioral trends, the passengers' elevator riding intentions can be accurately predicted, such as going upstairs, going downstairs, and registering the destination floor. After predicting these elevator riding needs of the passengers, the elevator car can be controlled to provide corresponding services according to the passengers' elevator riding needs. For example, an upward call service is provided according to the predicted going upstairs demand, a downward call service is provided according to the predicted going downstairs demand, and a prompt including a destination floor call light with registration authority is displayed according to the predicted destination floor registration demand. Therefore, services can be provided according to the passengers' willingness for upward / downward calls, matching the passengers' elevator riding needs, and avoiding the overlapping of internal calls, and avoiding passengers registering the authorized floors of other passengers.

[0065] In one embodiment of the present invention, the steps of analyzing passenger behavior trends in the video images of the elevator lobby and the elevator car based on the functional areas of the elevator lobby and the functional areas of the elevator car, and controlling the elevator car to provide service according to the behavior trends include:

[0066] S11, using the video image of the elevator lobby and the video image of the elevator car to compare the position changes of passengers between different functional areas at different times, determine the passenger's behavior trend and control the elevator car to provide service according to the behavior trend.

[0067] After collecting video images of the elevator lobby and the elevator car, the video images of the elevator lobby and the elevator car can be used to compare the position changes of passengers between different functional areas at different times, determine the passenger behavior trends and control the elevator car to provide services according to the said behavior trends.

[0068] Specifically, by comparing the position changes of passengers in different functional areas at different times, the passenger's behavioral trend can be judged. For example, if the passenger is in the entrance area and the grid position at the current moment is closer to the elevator lobby than the previous moment, it can be judged that the passenger is entering the elevator lobby; if the passenger is in the entrance area or the middle waiting area and moves to the waiting area of ​​elevator car No. 1 at the next moment, it can be judged that the passenger is preparing to take elevator No. 1; if the passenger is in the elevator area at the car exit and moves to the floor registration area at the next moment, it can be judged that the passenger is preparing to register for the destination floor.

[0069] In one embodiment of the present invention, the functional areas of the elevator lobby include an entrance area and waiting areas for each elevator car; and the step of using video images of the elevator lobby and video images of the elevator car to compare position changes of passengers between different functional areas at different times, determining passenger behavior trends, and controlling the elevator car to provide service according to the behavior trends includes:

[0070] S21, if the video image of the elevator lobby shows that a passenger appears in the entrance area of ​​the elevator lobby, pre-assign an upward elevator car and a downward elevator car and light up the pre-service direction lights of the upward elevator car and the downward elevator car respectively;

[0071] S22, when the video image of the elevator lobby at the next moment shows that the passenger appears in the waiting area of ​​the upward elevator car, canceling the pre-service direction light of the downward elevator car and allocating the upward elevator car for the hall call service;

[0072] S23, when the video image of the elevator lobby at the next moment shows that the passenger appears in the waiting area of ​​the downward elevator car, the pre-service direction light of the upward elevator car is cancelled and the downward elevator car is allocated for the hall call service.

[0073] In this embodiment of the present invention, when a passenger enters the elevator lobby, although their intention to board the elevator is not yet known, an upward and downward elevator car can be pre-assigned to the passenger. Furthermore, based on the passenger's changing position between different functional areas at different times, the passenger's behavioral trends can be determined, and their intention to board the elevator can be predicted. Hall call services can then be assigned to the upward and downward elevator cars. The pre-assigned upward and downward elevator cars can be idle cars, meaning cars that have not yet been assigned to provide hall call services in the target direction. Each building can have at least two idle cars.

[0074] That is, when analyzing the elevator lobby image, if the elevator lobby video image shows a passenger in the elevator lobby entrance area, an up-bound elevator car and a down-bound elevator car are pre-assigned, and the pre-service direction lights for the up-bound elevator car and the down-bound elevator car are illuminated, respectively. If the elevator lobby video image shows the passenger in the up-bound elevator waiting area at the next moment, the pre-service direction light for the down-bound elevator car is canceled, and the up-bound elevator car is assigned for hall call service. If the elevator lobby video image shows the passenger in the down-bound elevator waiting area at the next moment, the pre-service direction light for the up-bound elevator car is canceled, and the down-bound elevator car is assigned for hall call service. This allows services to be provided according to the passenger's desire for up / downward hall calls, matching the passenger's needs.

[0075] In one embodiment of the present invention, when the elevator car assigned to the current passenger has not arrived at the current floor, and there are other passengers entering the elevator lobby, if the elevator demand of other passengers is consistent with the target direction of the current passenger, they can generally go directly to the elevator car waiting area where the current passenger is and wait; if the elevator demand of other passengers is inconsistent with the target direction of the current passenger, it can be determined whether there are at least two idle elevators left in the building. When it is determined that there are at least two idle elevators, the service can be provided in the same way as the service for the current passenger; if the elevator demand of other passengers is inconsistent with the target direction of the current passenger, and there is only one idle elevator left in the building, the direction of the elevator car that has been assigned the target direction will be locked unchanged, and the idle elevator will be assigned to the external call service in the opposite direction of the elevator car with the locked target direction and the call light will be turned on, so that other passengers can go directly to the waiting area corresponding to the elevator car and wait according to the instructions.

[0076] As an example,

[0077] ① A passenger enters the elevator lobby entrance area, and the elevator control system detects that the passenger is about to enter the elevator lobby;

[0078] ② The elevator control system pre-assigns one elevator each for the upward and downward directions based on the current elevator's operating status (assuming elevator No. 1 pre-serves the upward direction and elevator No. 2 pre-serves the downward direction), and flashes the pre-service direction indicator of each elevator.

[0079] ③ The passenger sees the pre-service direction light and moves towards the elevator he is going to take (assuming the passenger needs to take the elevator in the downward direction, he will move from the entrance area to the waiting area for elevator No. 2);

[0080] ④ The system determines that the passenger's riding trend is elevator No. 2, that is, the downward direction, so the upward plan pre-service of elevator No. 1 is cancelled, and the downward direction hall call of the floor is lit, and elevator No. 2 is allocated for the hall call service.

[0081] In one embodiment of the present invention, the functional areas of the elevator car include a floor registration area, an internal elevator boarding area, and an exit elevator boarding area; the step of using the video image of the elevator lobby and the video image of the elevator car to compare the position changes of passengers between different functional areas at different times, determining the passenger's behavior trend, and controlling the elevator car to provide service according to the behavior trend includes:

[0082] S31, when the video image of the elevator car shows a passenger in the exit boarding area, identifying the passenger image and obtaining the passenger's floor authority;

[0083] S32, if the video image of the elevator car shows that the passenger is currently located in the exit boarding area or the internal boarding area and the passenger is located in the floor registration area at the next moment, the floor registration right corresponding to the passenger's floor right is granted and the call light corresponding to the passenger's floor right is illuminated at a lower brightness;

[0084] S33, in response to the passenger's operation on the target call light, register the destination floor and light up the call light of the destination floor at normal brightness, and cancel the other floor registration permissions in the floor registration permissions; the normal brightness is higher than the lower brightness.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present invention, the floor permissions of passengers entering and exiting each building can be pre-registered. Thus, in an application, when a passenger appears in the exit boarding area of ​​the elevator car's video image, the passenger's image can be identified and the passenger's floor permission can be determined. If the elevator car video image shows the passenger currently in the exit boarding area or the interior boarding area, and the passenger in the floor registration area at the next moment, the floor registration permission corresponding to the passenger's floor permission can be enabled, and the corresponding call light can be illuminated at a lower brightness to alert the passenger. This reduces the number of buttons the passenger needs to check on the control panel and facilitates finding the destination floor. The passenger can then view the illuminated call light at a lower brightness and select their destination floor. The elevator control system can then respond to the passenger's operation of the target call light, registering the destination floor and illuminating the call light for the destination floor at normal brightness, while also removing the registration permissions for other floors in the floor registration permission list. The call lights corresponding to the other floor registration permissions can also be turned off, thereby preventing overlapping internal calls and preventing passengers from registering floors with other passengers' permission. The normal brightness can be higher than the low brightness to distinguish between registered floors and floors for which registration permission is pending.

[0086] In one embodiment of the present invention, if at least two passengers appear in the video image of the elevator and the first passenger enters the floor registration area to register for the first destination floor before the second passenger, the call light of the first destination floor will remain lit at normal brightness while the second passenger is registering for the second destination floor.

[0087] As an example,

[0088] ① Multiple passengers (assuming they are A and B) enter the elevator car. The elevator control system uses image information to obtain the floor permissions of different passengers (assuming A has permissions for floors 1, 3, and 15, and B has permissions for floors 1, 4, and 20);

[0089] ② Obtain the behavioral trends of different passengers in the elevator car (for example, A first moves from the exit elevator area to the floor registration area, and B waits in the exit elevator area);

[0090] ③ Since A arrives at the floor registration area first, the system determines that A has a tendency to register for a target floor. The system opens the registration permissions for floors 1, 3, and 15, and lights up the car call at a lower brightness as a prompt.

[0091] ④A registers the destination floor, and the registration rights for other open floors are cancelled;

[0092] ⑤A leaves the floor registration area, and B enters the floor registration area;

[0093] ⑥ The system determines that B has a trend of registering on target floors and opens registration permissions for floors 1, 4, and 20;

[0094] ⑦B registers the destination floor, and the registration authority for other open floors is cancelled.

[0095] In an embodiment of the present invention, real-time video images of the elevator lobby and the elevator car are captured. Based on the functional areas of the elevator lobby and the elevator car, passenger behavior trends in these images are analyzed and the elevator car is controlled to provide services based on these trends. This method determines passenger behavior trends and, based on these trends, can more accurately determine passenger needs, predict services in advance, and control the elevator car to provide corresponding services. This method can better guide passengers in elevator travel, enhance the passenger experience, and achieve a user-friendly and seamless elevator ride.
