Description

Automatisierte Erkennung von Schwarzfahrern Automated detection of fare dodgers
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 und ein Verfahren nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 8. The invention relates to an arrangement according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method according to the preamble of claim 8.
Aus dem Stand der Technik sind sogenannte CiCo- und BiBo-Systeme sowie Kombi nationen daraus bekannt. Diese Systeme dienen der elektronischen Erfassung der Tickets von Fahrgästen in Personenbeförderungsmitteln. Ein BiBo-System beschreibt etwa DE 102007 014 528 A1. So-called CiCo and BiBo systems and combinations thereof are known from the prior art. These systems serve to electronically record the tickets of passengers in means of passenger transport. A BiBo system is described in DE 102007 014 528 A1.
US 2007 299 722 A2 offenbart ein Verfahren zur automatisierten Erfassung der Be nutzung kostenpflichtiger Transportmittel zur Personenbeförderung. Das System dient dazu, einen Fahrpreis abzurechnen. Im Bereich des Transportmittels ist ein Sender angeordnet. Dieser sendet im Sinne einer unidirektionalen Kommunikation Datentelegramme aus, die von einem Endgerät eines Fahrgasts empfangen und wei terverarbeitet werden. US 2007 299 722 A2 discloses a method for the automated detection of the use of chargeable means of transport for passenger transport. The system is used to settle a fare. A transmitter is arranged in the area of the means of transport. This sends out data telegrams in the sense of unidirectional communication, which are received by a passenger's end device and further processed.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, aus dem Stand der Technik bekannte Ti cketerfassungssysteme für Personenbeförderungsmittel zu verbessern. Insbeson dere soll es möglich sein, Schwarzfahrer, das heißt Personen, die das Personenbe förderungsmittel ohne ein Ticket benutzen, zu erkennen. Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch eine Anordnung nach Anspruch 1 und ein Verfahren nach Anspruch 8. Bevor zugte Weiterbildungen sind in den Unteransprüchen enthalten und ergeben sich aus nachfolgender Beschreibung. The object of the invention is to improve ticket detection systems known from the prior art for means of passenger transport. In particular, it should be possible to identify fare dodgers, ie people using the means of transport without a ticket. This object is achieved by an arrangement according to claim 1 and a method according to claim 8. Preferred developments are contained in the dependent claims and result from the following description.
Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung dient zur Erkennung von Schwarzfahrern, d.h. von Personen, die kein Ticket besitzen. Sie umfasst ein Ticketerfassungssystem. Hiermit wird eine Anordnung bezeichnet, die ausgebildet ist, beim Einstieg von Per sonen in das Personenbeförderungsmittel und beim Ausstieg der Personen aus dem Personenbeförderungsmittel deren Tickets zu erfassen. Als Ticketerfassungssystem eignet sich eines der oben beschriebenen, aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Systeme zur elektronischen Erfassung von Tickets. Ein Ticketerfassungssystem, das Personen anhand von deren Tickets erfasst, ist nicht in der Lage, Schwarzfahrer zu erkennen. Erfindungsgemäß ist daher als Ergän zung zu dem Ticketerfassungssystem ein Personenerfassungssystem vorgesehen. Dies bezeichnet eine Anordnung, die ausgebildet ist, Personen beim Einstieg in das Personenbeförderungsmittel und beim Ausstieg aus dem Personenbeförderungsmit tel unabhängig von deren Ticket zu erfassen. Insbesondere ist das Personenerfas sungssystem in der Lage, Personen beim Ein- und Ausstieg zu erfassen, die kein Ticket besitzen. Von dem Personenerfassungssystem werden somit auch Schwarz fahrer erfasst. The arrangement according to the invention is used to identify fare dodgers, ie people who do not have a ticket. It includes a ticket registration system. This designates an arrangement which is designed to record the tickets when people enter the means of passenger transport and when they exit the means of passenger transport. One of the systems described above, known from the prior art, for electronically recording tickets is suitable as a ticket recording system. A ticketing system that records people based on their tickets is not able to recognize fare dodgers. According to the invention, a person detection system is therefore provided as a supplement to the ticket detection system. This refers to an arrangement that is designed to detect people entering and exiting the means of passenger transport independently of their ticket. In particular, the person detection system is able to detect people entering and exiting who do not have a ticket. The person detection system thus also detects fare dodgers.
Erfindungsgemäß umfasst die Anordnung darüber hinaus ein Vergleichsmittel. Die ses ist ausgebildet, eine Anzahl der von dem Ticketerfassungssystem erfassten Ti ckets und eine Anzahl der von dem Personenerfassungssystem erfassten Personen miteinander zu vergleichen. Bei der Anzahl der von dem Ticketerfassungssystem er fassten Tickets handelt es sich um eine Anzahl der beim Einstieg der jeweiligen Per son erfassten Tickets, die noch nicht beim Ausstieg erfasst wurden. Die Anzahl der erfassten Tickets ergibt sich also als Differenz aus der Anzahl der beim Einstieg der jeweiligen Person erfassten Tickets und einer Anzahl der beim Ausstieg erfassten Tickets. According to the invention, the arrangement also includes a means of comparison. This is designed to compare a number of tickets registered by the ticket registration system and a number of persons registered by the person registration system with one another. The number of tickets recorded by the ticket recording system is a number of tickets recorded when the respective person boarded, which were not recorded when they exited. The number of tickets recorded is therefore the difference between the number of tickets recorded when the respective person boarded and the number of tickets recorded when the person exited.
Entsprechend handelt es sich bei der Anzahl der von dem Personenerfassungssys tem erfassten Personen um eine Anzahl der beim Einstieg erfassten Personen, die noch nicht beim Ausstieg erfasst wurden. Diese Anzahl ergibt sich als Differenz aus der Anzahl der beim Einstieg erfassten Personen und einer Anzahl der beim Ausstieg erfassten Personen. Accordingly, the number of persons recorded by the person registration system is a number of persons recorded when boarding who were not yet recorded when exiting. This number results from the difference between the number of people recorded when boarding and a number of people recorded when exiting.
Eine Differenz der beiden Anzahlen entspricht der Anzahl der in dem Personenbeför derungsmittel befindlichen Schwarzfahrer. Beträgt die Differenz Null, stimmen also die beiden von dem Vergleichsmittel miteinander verglichenen Anzahlen überein, ist davon auszugehen, dass sich kein Schwarzfahrer in dem Personenbeförderungsmit tel aufhält. Bei einer von Null verschiedenen Differenz lassen sich gezielt Fahrgast kontrollen durchführen, um Schwarzfahrer zu überführen. Das Ticketerfassungssystem ist bevorzugt weitergebildet, die erfassten Tickets abzu rechnen. Im Einzelnen wird dazu beim Ein- und Ausstieg einer Person ein Identifika- tor erfasst. Es handelt sich um einen Identifikator, welcher der jeweiligen Person und/oder dem Ticket der Person zugeordnet ist. Dem Identifikator wiederum ist ein Konto zugeordnet, von dem ein geeignet festzulegender Betrag eines Zahlungsmit tels abgebucht wird. A difference between the two numbers corresponds to the number of fare dodgers in the passenger transport. If the difference is zero, ie if the two numbers compared by the comparison means match, it can be assumed that there is no fare dodger in the passenger transport means. If the difference is not zero, targeted passenger checks can be carried out in order to convict fare dodgers. The ticket registration system is preferably further developed to bill the registered tickets. In detail, an identifier is recorded when a person enters and exits. It is an identifier that is assigned to the respective person and/or the person's ticket. The identifier in turn is assigned an account from which a suitably defined amount of a means of payment is debited.
In einer darüber hinaus bevorzugten Weiterbildung wird der Betrag in Abhängigkeit einer Route festgelegt, die zwischen dem Ein- und dem Ausstieg der jeweiligen Per son von dem Personenbeförderungsmittel zurückgelegt wurde. In a further preferred development, the amount is determined as a function of a route that was covered by the means of passenger transport between the entry and exit of the respective person.
Andere Bezahlmodelle sehen vor, dass die Benutzung des Personenbeförderungs mittels nicht nachträglich mit einem Konto verrechnet, sondern im Voraus bezahlt wird. In einer entsprechenden Weiterbildung prüft das Ticketerfassungssystem, ob dem jeweiligen Ticket ein Betrag eines Zahlungsmittels zugeordnet ist, der zur Benut zung des Personenbeförderungsmittels berechtigt. Other payment models provide that the use of the means of passenger transport is not subsequently charged against an account, but is paid for in advance. In a corresponding development, the ticket registration system checks whether the respective ticket is assigned an amount of a means of payment that authorizes the use of the means of passenger transport.
Das Personenerfassungssystem ist bevorzugt mit mindestens einem Sensor weiter gebildet. Dieser erfasst die Personen beim Einstieg in das Personenbeförderungsmit tel und beim Ausstieg aus dem Personenbeförderungsmittel. Der Sensor kann etwa im Bereich einer Tür des Personenbeförderungsmittels angeordnet sein, sodass sein Erfassungsbereich mindestens teilweise einen Bereich abdeckt, den die Personen beim Benutzen der Tür passieren. Hierfür eignen sich etwa Näherungssensoren oder bildgebende Sensoren. The person detection system is preferably further developed with at least one sensor. This registers people entering and exiting the means of passenger transport. The sensor can be arranged, for example, in the area of a door of the means of passenger transport, so that its detection area at least partially covers an area that people pass when using the door. Proximity sensors or imaging sensors are suitable for this.
Bildgebende Sensoren können auch zur Innenraum Überwachung verwendet werden. In dem Fall sind ein oder mehrere bildgebende Sensoren so angeordnet, dass sie mindestens einen Teil eines Fahrgastraums des Personenbeförderungsmittels erfas sen. Mittels der bildgebenden Sensors werden ein oder mehrere Bilder mindestens eines Teils des Fahrgastraums erstellt. Diese Bilder werden mit einem zuvor mittels derselben Sensoren angefertigten Bild des leeren Fahrgastraums verglichen, um die in dem Fahrgastraum befindlichen Personen zu identifizieren. Insbesondere werden dadurch Personen beim Ein- und Ausstieg unabhängig von deren Ticket erfasst. Alternativ oder zusätzlich lassen sich die Personen in einer bevorzugten Weiterbil dung anhand mindestens einer Achs- oder Radlast des Personenbeförderungsmittels erfassen. In der Achs- oder Radlast ist nicht nur eine Gewichtskraftkomponente des Personenbeförderungsmittels, sondern auch der beförderten Personen enthalten. Bevorzugt wird der Ein- und Ausstieg der Personen durch kontinuierliche oder wie derholte Messung der Achs- oder Radlast ermittelt. Verändert sich die Achs- oder Radlast um einen Betrag, welcher der Gewichtskraft einer Person entspricht, so lässt dies auf einen Ein- oder Ausstieg schließen. Vergrößert sich die Achs- oder Radlast, so ist eine Person in das Personenbeförderungsmittel eingestiegen. Eine entspre chende Verringerung der Achs- oder Radlast lässt auf einen Ausstieg schließen. Imaging sensors can also be used for interior surveillance. In this case, one or more imaging sensors are arranged in such a way that they detect at least part of a passenger compartment of the means of passenger transport. One or more images of at least part of the passenger compartment are created by means of the imaging sensors. These images are compared to an image of the empty passenger compartment previously made using the same sensors to identify the occupants of the passenger compartment. In particular, people are recorded when boarding and alighting, regardless of their ticket. Alternatively or additionally, in a preferred development, the persons can be detected using at least one axle or wheel load of the means of passenger transport. The axle or wheel load not only contains a weight component of the means of passenger transport, but also of the people being transported. Entry and exit of people is preferably determined by continuous or repeated measurement of the axle or wheel load. If the axle or wheel load changes by an amount that corresponds to the weight of a person, this indicates that the vehicle has entered or exited the vehicle. If the axle or wheel load increases, a person has entered the means of passenger transport. A corresponding reduction in the axle or wheel load suggests an exit.
Bevorzugt ist das Personenerfassungssystem weitergebildet, die Personen mittels des mindestens einen Sensors und/oder der mindestens einen Achs- oder Radlast zu lokalisieren. Eine Lokalisierung der Person ist je nach Art des Sensors auf unter schiedlichem Wege möglich. Handelt es sich um einen Türsensor, so lässt sich auf einen Aufenthalt der Person in der Nähe der jeweiligen Tür schließen. Der genaue Aufenthaltsort der jeweiligen Person lässt sich mittels eines Sensors zur Innenraum überwachung bestimmen. Auch über die Achs- oder Radlast lassen sich die Perso nen lokalisieren, da in Abhängigkeit des Aufenthaltsorts einer Person innerhalb des Personenbeförderungsmittels unterschiedliche Räder unterschiedlich von einer Än derung der Radlast betroffen sind. The person detection system is preferably further developed to localize the person by means of the at least one sensor and/or the at least one axle or wheel load. Localization of the person is possible in different ways, depending on the type of sensor. If it is a door sensor, it can be concluded that the person is in the vicinity of the respective door. The exact whereabouts of the respective person can be determined by means of a sensor for monitoring the interior. The people can also be localized via the axle or wheel load, since depending on the whereabouts of a person within the means of passenger transport, different wheels are affected differently by a change in the wheel load.
Ein erfindungsgemäßes Verfahren entspricht dem oben Beschriebenen, mittels der erfindungsgemäßen Anordnung durchgeführten Verfahren. A method according to the invention corresponds to the method described above, carried out by means of the arrangement according to the invention.
Ein bevorzugtes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in Fig. 1 dargestellt. Im Einzel nen zeigt: A preferred embodiment of the invention is shown in FIG. In detail shows:
Fig. 1 eine Anordnung zum Erkennen von Schwarzfahrern. 1 shows an arrangement for detecting fare dodgers.
Tickets der Fahrgäste eines Personenbeförderungsmittels 101 lassen sich auf ver schiedenem Wege erfassen, etwa mittels eines BiBo-Systems 103 oder eines CiCo- Systems 105. Auch ist es möglich, die Fahrgäste mittels eines mobilen Endgeräts 107 und/oder mittels biometrischer und/oder bildgebender Sensoren 109, die in dem Personenbeförderungsmittel 101 und/oder an einer Haltestelle 111 angebracht sind, zu identifizieren. Den identifizierten Fahrästen wird jeweils - sofern vorhanden - ein elektronisches Ticket zugeordnet. Tickets for passengers on a means of passenger transport 101 can be recorded in various ways, for example using a BiBo system 103 or a CiCo System 105. It is also possible to identify the passengers by means of a mobile terminal device 107 and/or by means of biometric and/or imaging sensors 109, which are installed in the means of passenger transport 101 and/or at a stop 111. An electronic ticket - if available - is assigned to each identified terminal.
Die beschriebenen Systeme erfassen lediglich Tickets. Betritt ein Schwarzfahrer das Personenbeförderungsmittel 101 , wird dieser nicht erfasst, da er kein Ticket besitzt. Daher ist das Personenbeförderungsmittel 101 mit weiteren Sensoren ausgerüstet, die Personen unabhängig von deren Tickets erfassen. The systems described only record tickets. If a fare dodger enters the means of passenger transport 101, he is not recorded because he does not have a ticket. The means of passenger transport 101 is therefore equipped with additional sensors that detect people independently of their tickets.
Zur Erfassung von Schwarzfahrern eignen sich neben bildgebenden Sensoren 109 auch Türsensoren 113. Diese sind so angeordnet, dass die Türen des Personenbe förderungsmittels 101 im Erfassungsbereich der Sensoren 113 liegen. Personen, die in das Personenbeförderungsmittel 101 einsteigen und aus dem Personenbeförde rungsmittel 101 aussteigen, werden folglich von den Türsensoren 113 erfasst. In addition to imaging sensors 109, door sensors 113 are also suitable for detecting fare dodgers. Persons who board the means of passenger transport 101 and exit the means of passenger transport 101 are consequently detected by the door sensors 113 .
Auch ist es möglich, die Personen über Sensoren zu erfassen, die im Fahrwerk 115 des Personenbeförderungsmittels 101 üblicherweise vorhanden sind. Insbesondere kann es sich um Druck- und/oder Höhenstandssensoren des Fahrwerks 115 han deln. In Abhängigkeit der in dem Personenbeförderungsmittel 101 befindlichen Per sonen ändern sich die von diesen Sensoren erfassten Parameter. Daraus lässt sich auf die Anzahl der Personen schließen. It is also possible to detect the people using sensors that are usually present in the chassis 115 of the means of passenger transport 101 . In particular, these can be pressure and/or level sensors of the chassis 115 han spindles. The parameters detected by these sensors change as a function of the persons located in the means of passenger transport 101 . From this, the number of people can be deduced.
