  • Patent number: 9079751
    Abstract: A system for controlling the elevators in an elevator system based on passenger presence. The elevator system includes a number of elevators (1A . . . 1H) wherein first sensor members (2, 2A . . . 2H), second sensor members and additional sensor members are arranged in a waiting area of each elevator (1A . . . 1H) on each floor (F, F1, F2, F3 . . . Fn). The first, second and additional sensor members are fitted to give information about the presence and number of passengers waiting to go either up or down for an elevator at least in the waiting area in question. A controller is provided for controlling the elevators. The controller receives information from the first, second and additional sensor members about the presence and number of passengers waiting for an elevator and to control the movement of the elevators of the elevator system utilizing the information received from the first, second and additional sensor members.

  • Patent number: 8164277
    Abstract: The invention relates to a system comprising a plurality of light emitting diodes, LEDs. The LEDs may be controlled in various in various manners in order to obtain any of one or more objects of the system. Thus, LEDs may be controlled for by controlling at least two of the following parameters: the luminous intensity of each of the LEDs, the luminous flux of each of the LEDs, the colour spectrum of the light being emitted from each of the LEDs, the spatial radiation pattern of the light being emitted from each of the LEDs, the spatial radiation pattern of the system, the junction temperature of each of the LEDs, the temperature of the surroundings to the LED, the amperage of the electrical power being supplied each or sections of the LEDs, the voltage of the electrical power being applied the LEDs and pulsing applied to the electrical power being applied each or sections of the LEDs.
