Abstract: A guide for individual movement machinery. The guide includes a base, a frame and a monitoring system. The monitoring system includes arrays of sensors affixed to each of the base and the frame to respectively sense guide conditions and to generate readings accordingly.

Abstract: A door control system is provided. Aspects includes a sensor having a field of view in proximity to a door threshold of an entrance to an occupancy area, wherein the sensor is adapted to detect objects in the door threshold and a landing area proximate to the door threshold, wherein the sensor is operated based on a movement of a door in the door threshold. And based at least upon detecting an object within a portion of the door threshold or the landing area, the sensor operable to signal a door operation controller to perform an action.

Abstract: A zone object detection system including a passenger compartment. Also included is a door moveable between an opened position and a closed position. Further included is a first sensor monitoring a first zone outside of a plane of the door. Yet further included is a second sensor monitoring a second zone comprising at least one of the plane of the door and outside of the plane of the door. Also included is a controller in operative communication with the first sensor and the second sensor, the controller commanding a first modification of a door closing movement of the door if an object is detected in the first zone, the controller commanding a second modification of the door closing movement of the door if an object is detected in the second zone.

Abstract: Disclosed is a people flow management system including: an entryway through which people pass through, an image control apparatus that displays a first plurality of graphical indicia, the first plurality of graphical indicia being directed to controlling a flow of people passing through the entryway and comprising a first indicia indicative of the entryway being accessible for people passing through and a second indicia indicative of the entryway being inaccessible, wherein the image control apparatus displays an indicia from the first plurality of graphical indicia at one or more of a plurality of locations, the plurality of locations including: a first location above the entryway, and a second location on a floor below the entryway.

Abstract: An elevator security system for a building includes data relating to a floor that a user may access in the building, a device in which the data is stored, a credential containing the data in a machine readable format and created by the user, and a first machine reader reading the credential and sending data therein to the device for querying whether the user may access the floor, the device allowing access to an elevator car for transport to the floor if the credential is in sync with the data stored in the device.
