  • Publication number: 20220204312
    Abstract: A method of generating an elevator call using a mobile device including: detecting a first advertisement emitted by a first beacon, the first beacon being located at a first location and the first beacon is configured to emit the first advertisement a first selected range away from the first beacon; determining that an individual will be boarding an elevator system based on at least the first location of the first beacon; and transmitting the elevator call to a dispatcher of the elevator system based on determining that the individual will be boarding the elevator system or authorizing a previously placed elevator call to the dispatcher based on determining that the individual will be boarding the elevator system.

  • Publication number: 20220033217
    Abstract: Disclosed is ropeless elevator system having: a car mover operationally connected to an elevator car, the car mover configured to move the elevator car along a hoistway lane and to operate autonomously, wherein the car mover has an Autonomous Car Separation Assurance (ACSA) system that has: a sensor configured to provide sensor data representing positional information of the elevator car, a motion control system configured to control motion of the car mover, wherein the ACSA system is configured to estimate an operational state of the elevator car by processing the sensor data and velocity data, representing velocity of the car mover within the hoistway lane, via a State Observe Filter, and wherein the ACSA system is configured to control the car mover to avoid a collision between the elevator car and another object in response to estimating the operational state of the elevator car.
