Publication number: 20210229954Abstract: A system (100) for generating a thermal profile of a building is provided. The building includes an elevator (102) and a corresponding counterweight (103) within a hoistway (101). The system includes a facility management subsystem (130) and detection devices (136, 138). The facility management subsystem (130), in response to receiving an alarm, causes the elevator to automatically travel to one or more floors of the building and instructs the detection devices (136, 138) to collect images of one or more elevator lobbies of the building or the hoistway with respect to the elevator automatically traveling to the one or more floors. The facility management subsystem (130) generates a thermal profile based on the images.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 29, 2019Publication date: July 29, 2021Inventors: Prasad Babu Lakshmipathy, Sudharshan Karanam, Rajinikanth Pusala
