Abstract: The invention relates to a method for generating an elevator call. The method comprises: obtaining (202) image data representing at least one symbol (310, 310a, 310b) illustrated on a symbol representing device (320) from at least one image sensing device (112), identifying (204) the at least one symbol (310, 310a, 310b) from the obtained image data, and generating (206) the elevator call in accordance with the identified at least one symbol (310, 310a, 310b). The invention relates also to an elevator control unit (108) and an elevator system (100) performing at least partly the method.

Abstract: An access control system includes: at least one gate device and a control unit. The control unit is configured to: control the at least one gate device to operate in a first operation mode, in which the gate device is arranged to allow access for the users via the gate device only from a first access direction, detect that a traffic flow of the users meets a predefined capacity limit, and control at least one gate device to change to operate in a second operation mode, in which the gate device is arranged to allow access for the users via the gate device from the first access direction and from the second access direction. The invention relates also to a method for controlling an access control system.

Abstract: An access control system for an elevator system includes a gate device allowing access for users via the gate device, at least one imaging device for obtaining image data, at least one sensor device for obtaining sensor data, at least one indication device, and a control unit. The control unit is configured to: receive the image data from the at least one imaging device, detect a user approaching the gate device based on the received image data, obtain destination floor information including at least two destination floors, control the at least one indication device to generate a first visual indication including the at least two destination floors, and detect a destination floor selected by the user from among the at least two destination floors based on sensor data received from the at least one sensor device. An elevator system includes an access control system and to a method for controlling an access control system is disclosed.

Abstract: An indication system for generating an indication includes at least one indication device, at least one detection device configured to monitor at least one area inside a building to provide monitoring data, and a control unit. The control unit is configured to: detect based on the monitoring data obtained from the at least one detection device at least one predefined gesture of an identified user for which an elevator car (A-D) has been allocated, and control the at least one indication device to generate a visual indication on a floor of the building in a vicinity of the identified user in response to the detection of the at least one predefined gesture of the identified user. A method for generating an indication is also disclosed.

Abstract: A method and system for generating automatic destination calls for an elevator system, in which system is a revolving door. A passenger approaching the revolving door or in a door sector of the revolving door is identified, a destination call to the home floor of the passenger is generated and the elevator serving the passenger is announced at the revolving door.

Abstract: Method and system for generating automatic destination calls for an elevator system, in which system is a revolving door. A passenger approaching the revolving door or in a door sector of the revolving door is identified, a destination call to the home floor of the passenger is generated and the elevator serving the passenger is announced with the information means that are in connection with the revolving door.

Abstract: An arrangement for the call apparatus and display apparatus of an elevator has a body part which includes at least call buttons and other actuators, such as apertures for the display elements. The body part is essentially universal such that the number, size, shape and placement location of the apertures of the body part are arranged to be suited for the use of as many display variations and/or call button variations as possible, and in that an essentially thin light-attenuating film-like layer is disposed in front of the body part, which layer is fitted to allow light produced by the display elements through, but covers the apertures and other features in the body part.

Abstract: The object of the invention is an arrangement for the call apparatus and display apparatus of an elevator. The arrangement (1, 17) comprises a body part (5, 18), which comprises at least call buttons (8) and other actuators (3), such as apertures (6, 7, 19) for the display elements (16). The body part (5, 18) is essentially universal such that the number, size, shape and placement location of the apertures (6, 7, 19) of the body part (5, 18) are arranged to be suited for the use of as many display variations and/or call button variations as possible, and in that an essentially thin light-attenuating film-like layer (9, 20) is disposed in front of the body part (5, 18), which layer is fitted to allow light produced by the display elements through, but covers the apertures (6, 7, 19) and other features in the body part (5, 18).
