Abstract: Disclosed herein are an elevator control method and an elevator control system. The elevator control method includes the steps of: receiving a request signal from a robot; registering an elevator control signal to control operation of an elevator based on the request signal; determining whether a current situation corresponds to an exceptional situation in which operation of the elevator dictated by the elevator control signal conflicts with an actual state of the robot based on an image acquired by a camera disposed in the elevator, a location of the robot, and a situation at a platform; maintaining the currently registered elevator control signal based on determination that the current situation corresponds to the exceptional situation; and clearing the currently registered elevator control signal based on determination that the current situation corresponds to the exceptional situation.
Abstract: Disclosed is a robot interlocking elevator control system for efficient control of elevators operated in association with robots autonomously moving in a building. The present disclosure provides a method of setting the most efficient elevator line to be exclusive for robots in consideration of traffic volume in the building, a method of assigning elevator lines and efficiently switching operation modes of elevators while suppressing an encounter between the robots and humans, and a method of setting robot boarding-related parameters for elevator lines set to allow use of the robots.
