The mounting unit 20 may be configured as a single unit as shown in FIG. 2 or may be arranged at a suitable position by separating the components. A plurality of load sensors 24 may be provided on the shoe sole.

  The load sensor 24 detects a load applied to the shoe using, for example, a load cell. For example, the load sensor 24 outputs different values depending on whether a person has a heavy load or not. The walking sensor 26 detects a person's walking speed. As the walking sensor 26, for example, an acceleration sensor can be used.

  The communication unit 28 is an interface that performs wireless communication with the communication unit 49 of the main body unit 30. As the communication unit 28, for example, an interface such as Bluetooth (registered trademark) or infrared communication can be employed. The CPU 22 controls the load sensor 24, the walking sensor 26, and the communication unit 28 in an integrated manner. Note that an input unit (not shown) may be provided in the mounting unit 20 to input the weight of the user and store it in a memory (not shown). Thereby, CPU22 can recognize the load (for example, baggage) concerning a user by comparing the output of the load sensor 24 with the weight of the user memorize | stored in the memory not shown.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the main body 30 is provided above the elevator 10, for example. As shown in FIG. 1, the main body 30 includes an imaging device 34, a projection device 46, a communication unit 49, a nonvolatile memory 48, and a processing / control device 32. The main body 30 may be configured as a single unit as shown in FIG. 2 or may be arranged at a suitable position by separating the components. For example, the imaging device 34 and the projection device 46 of the main body 30 may be provided near the elevator 10 and the others may be provided at different positions.

  The imaging device 34 has an imaging lens, an imaging device such as a charge coupled device (CCD) image sensor or a complementary metal oxide semiconductor (CMOS) image sensor, a control circuit for controlling the imaging device, and the like. The imaging device 34 images the feet and face of a person who uses the elevator 10 (a person existing in front of the elevator 10). In FIG. 1, only one imaging device 34 is illustrated, but the present invention is not limited to this, and a plurality of imaging devices 34 may be used. In this case, the feet and face of the person who uses the elevator 10 may be captured by separate imaging devices.

  The projection device 46 includes a projector and the like, and is a device for displaying an image (for example, an image of an input key in which numbers and the like are arranged) at the feet of a person who uses the elevator 10.

  The nonvolatile memory 48 is, for example, a flash memory, and stores information (face data and the like) of a person who uses the elevator 10. The communication unit 49 is an interface that performs wireless communication with the communication unit 49 of the main body unit 30.

  The processing / control device 32 performs various types of processing / calculations and controls each part of the main body 30 in an integrated manner. FIG. 3 shows a hardware configuration of the processing / control device 32. As shown in FIG. 3, the processing / control device 32 includes a CPU 90, a ROM 92, a RAM 94, a storage unit (HDD (Hard Disk Drive)) 96, an input / output interface 97, and the like. Each component of the processing / control device 32 is connected to the bus 98. The input / output interface 97 is connected to the imaging device 34, the projection device 46, the nonvolatile memory 48, and the communication unit 49 of FIG. In the processing / control device 32, the function of each unit in FIG. 4 is realized by the CPU 90 executing a program stored in the ROM 92 or the HDD 96.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the processing / control device 32 in functional blocks. As shown in FIG. 4, in the processing / control device 32, the CPU 90 executes the program, thereby the face recognition unit 36, the gesture recognition unit 40, the elevator reservation unit 42, the elevator drive control unit 54, and the control unit 150. The function is realized.

  The face recognition unit 36 identifies the face of a person who uses the elevator 10 from the image captured by the imaging device 34. For example, the face recognition unit 36 identifies a person who uses the elevator 10 based on the face data stored in the nonvolatile memory 48, and inputs the identification result to the control unit 150.

  The gesture recognition unit 40 detects a movement (gesture) of a person's foot using the elevator 10 with respect to the input key image projected by the projection device 46. The gesture recognition unit 40 inputs the detection result to the control unit 150.

  The elevator reservation unit 42 reserves the destination floor of the elevator 10 based on the identification result of the face recognition unit 36 and the detection result of the gesture recognition unit 40.

  The elevator drive control unit 54 drives the elevator 10 by controlling the drive device 52 based on the destination floor reserved by the elevator reservation unit 42 and the operation of the person on the operation panel 56.

  The control unit 150 comprehensively controls each unit in the main body unit 30 and each unit in the processing / control device 32.

  Returning to FIG. 1, the drive device 52 includes a motor that drives the elevator 10 in the vertical direction, an opening / closing mechanism that opens and closes the door 12 (see FIG. 2) of the elevator 10, and the like. The operation panel 56 is provided on the outer side of the elevator as shown in FIG. 2 for inputting the destination direction (vertical direction), and for specifying the destination floor provided on the inner side of the elevator. The operation panel is included. Note that the operation panel 56 also includes an authentication device for performing input of a personal identification number, biometric authentication, authentication using an IC card, and the like.

  FIG. 5 shows an example of a database used for processing in the processing / control apparatus 32 in the first embodiment. This database is stored in the nonvolatile memory 48. The database of FIG. 5 stores the registrant's identifier (name and ID), the registrant's face data (photograph, etc.), the registrant's residence floor, and the password registered by the registrant.

  Next, processing of the elevator drive control system 100 of the first embodiment will be described in detail along the flowcharts of FIGS. 6 and 7 and with reference to other drawings as appropriate. As a premise of the processing in FIG. 6, it is assumed that a person wearing a shoe incorporating the mounting portion 20 is approaching the elevator 10. In this case, the control unit 150 determines that the person wearing the shoes incorporating the mounting unit 20 is approaching the elevator 10, the mounting unit 20 and the main body unit 30 enter a predetermined distance range, and the mounting unit 20 and the main unit It can be determined that communication with the unit 30 is possible.

  In the process of FIG. 6, first, in step S <b> 10, the control unit 150 issues a load detection instruction to the CPU 22 via the communication units 49 and 28. The CPU 22 detects a load using the load sensor 24. The detection result of the load sensor 24 is transmitted from the CPU 22 to the control unit 150 via the communication units 49 and 28.

  Next, in step S12, the control unit 150 instructs the CPU 22 to detect the walking speed via the communication units 49 and 28. The CPU 22 detects the walking speed using the walking sensor 26. The detection result of the walking sensor 26 is also transmitted from the CPU 22 to the control unit 150 via the communication units 49 and 28. Note that the execution order of step S10 and step S12 may be reversed.

  Next, in step S14, the control unit 150 determines the presence or absence of assist based on the load acquired in steps S10 and S12 and the movement speed of the person. Here, “assist” refers to processing for simplifying the destination floor designation operation when it is difficult for a person to press the operation panel 56. In step S14, the control unit 150 determines that assistance is necessary when the load is greater than a predetermined reference value and the moving speed is slower than the predetermined speed. Note that the predetermined reference value can be determined based on, for example, the smallest value detected in the past by the same load sensor (a state in which the same person does not have luggage). The load value detected by the load sensor 24 may be stored in a memory (not shown) of the mounting unit 20 or may be stored in the nonvolatile memory 48. Note that the control unit 150 can also determine the weight of the user stored in a memory (not shown) of the mounting unit 20 and the output of the load sensor 24 as described above. The predetermined speed can be determined based on, for example, the fastest speed or the average speed detected in the past by the same walking sensor. The speed detected by the walking sensor 26 may be stored in a memory (not shown) of the mounting unit 20 or may be stored in the nonvolatile memory 48. Note that the case where it is determined that assistance is required in step S14 is considered to be a case where a person has a large baggage (carrying a baggage with both hands blocked).

  Note that the controller 150 is not limited to determining that assistance is required when both the load and the moving speed satisfy the above-described criteria, and determines that assistance is required when either one satisfies the above-described criteria. Also good.

  Next, in step S16, the control unit 150 determines whether or not assistance is required as a result of step S14. When judgment here is denied, it transfers to step S38. In step S38, the control unit 150 performs normal operation of the elevator 10. Specifically, the control unit 150 issues an instruction to the elevator drive control unit 54 based on an input to the operation panel 56, and the elevator drive control unit 54 controls driving of the drive device 52 based on the instruction. Thus, the elevator 10 is moved up and down and the door 12 is opened and closed. It is assumed that a person riding in the elevator 10 needs to input a personal identification number, biometric authentication, authentication using an IC card, or the like when inputting to the operation panel 56.

  On the other hand, when the determination at step S16 is affirmative (when assistance is required), the control unit 150 proceeds to step S18.

  In step S <b> 18, the control unit 150 images the face of a person who uses the elevator using the imaging device 34. Next, in step S <b> 20, the control unit 150 issues an instruction to the face recognition unit 36 and performs face recognition based on the image captured by the imaging device 34. The face recognition unit 36 performs face recognition based on the database (face data) of FIG. 5 stored in the nonvolatile memory 48. Specifically, the face recognizing unit 36 compares the face data in the database of FIG. 5 with the face image existing in the captured image, thereby matching the person in the captured image. Is identified. If the face data in the database does not match the face image existing in the captured image, the face recognition unit identifies the person as an unregistered person.

  Next, in step S22, the control unit 150 executes a subroutine of assist processing. Specifically, in step S22, the control unit 150 executes processing according to the flowchart of FIG.

  In the process of FIG. 7, first, in step S <b> 40, the control unit 150 projects the password input image in front of the elevator 10 (the feet of the person using the elevator) via the projection device 46. For example, it is assumed that the projection device 46 projects an input key image including numeric keys 1 to 0 and an end key as shown in FIG. Note that the control unit 150 may output a voice such as “please enter the password” using a speaker (not shown) simultaneously with the projection of the input image key.

  Next, in step S <b> 42, the control unit 150 images the foot (entire input key image) via the imaging device 34. Next, in step S <b> 44, the control unit 150 causes the gesture recognition unit 40 to recognize the input of the personal identification number based on the image captured by the imaging device 34. In this case, the gesture recognizing unit 40 recognizes the input of a personal identification number (for example, four digits) and the selection operation of the end key based on the movement (movement and stop) of the human foot.

  Next, in step S46, the control unit 150 determines whether or not the authentication is successful. If the determination is negative, the process returns to step S40. If the determination is positive, the process proceeds to step S48. If the determination in step S46 is denied a plurality of times, the process shown in FIGS. 6 and 7 may be forcibly terminated (the elevator is not driven) in order to lock the security.

  If transfering it to step S48, the control part 150 will judge whether the residence floor is registered into the database of FIG. If the determination here is affirmed, the process of FIG. 7 is terminated, and the process proceeds to step S24 of FIG. On the other hand, if the determination in step S48 is negative (if the residence floor is not registered in the database of FIG. 5), the process proceeds to step S50.

  In step S50, the control unit 150 projects the destination floor input image in front of the elevator 10 (the feet of the person who uses the elevator) via the projection device 46. For example, the projection device 46 projects an input key image including numbers 2 to 6 as shown in FIG. In addition, FIG.8 (b) is an example in case the elevator hall of FIG. 2 is the 1st floor. That is, since the destination floor of the person on the first floor cannot be the first floor, 1 is not included in the numeric key image. Note that the control unit 150 may output a voice such as “Please enter a destination floor” using a speaker (not shown) simultaneously with the projection of the input image key.

  Next, in step S <b> 52, the control unit 150 images the foot (entire input key image) via the imaging device 34. Next, in step S54, the control unit 150 causes the gesture recognition unit 40 to recognize the destination floor input based on the image captured by the imaging device 34. In this case, the gesture recognition unit 40 recognizes the input of the destination floor based on the movement of the person's foot (movement and stop). When the process of step S54 ends, the control unit 150 proceeds to step S24 of FIG.

  Returning to FIG. 6, in step S <b> 24, the control unit 150 causes the elevator reservation unit 42 to reserve the destination floor of the elevator. In this case, when the determination in step S48 is affirmed in the process of FIG. 7 described above, the elevator reservation unit 42 reserves the residence floor registered in the database. On the other hand, if the determination in step S48 is negative, the destination floor recognized in step S54 is reserved. Thereby, the person using the elevator can designate the destination floor before getting on the elevator. The control unit 150 instructs the elevator drive control unit 54 to move the elevator 10 to the first floor when the reservation is made. The elevator drive control unit 54 drives the drive device 52 to move the elevator 10 to the first floor.

  Next, in step S26, the control unit 150 waits until the elevator arrives. Then, when the elevator arrives, the process proceeds to step S28, and the control unit 150 issues an instruction to the elevator drive control unit 54 and issues an instruction to open the door of the elevator 10. The elevator drive control unit 54 drives the drive device 52 to open the door of the elevator.

  Next, in step S30, the control unit 150 stands by until no one is present in the elevator hall. That is, the control unit 150 waits until a person gets on the elevator 10 and proceeds to step S32 when the person gets on.

  If transfering it to step S32, the control part 150 will close the door 12 of the elevator 10 via the elevator drive control part 54 and the drive device 52. FIG. Then, in the next step S34, the control unit 150 moves the elevator 10 to the floor reserved in step S28 via the elevator drive control unit 54 and the driving device 52, and at the stage of arrival at the reserved floor. In step S36, the door 12 is opened and closed.

  By performing the processing as described above, in the elevator drive control system 100, when a person who has a baggage and cannot use both hands is approaching the elevator 10, authentication or the like is performed without operating the operation panel 56. The destination floor of the elevator 10 can be reserved. For this reason, in the present embodiment, the operation panel 56 can be omitted.

  As described above in detail, according to the first embodiment, the control unit 150 relates to the foot of the person who uses the elevator from the sensor that detects the load applied to the foot of the person who uses the elevator 10 and the moving speed. Information is acquired, and based on this information, an image (input key image) is displayed on the foot via the projection device 46. That is, the control unit 150 displays the input key image at the foot when it can be determined from the information about the person's foot that the baggage is highly likely to be held. Thereby, since the person who uses the elevator 10 can input necessary information with his / her foot, it is possible to improve the usability in input. In the present embodiment, the state of the user is identified before imaging by the imaging device 34. For this reason, the ID for each user of the mounting unit 20 is registered in the nonvolatile memory 48, and the control unit 150 reserves the elevator 10 by detecting that the user is approaching the elevator 10 before imaging by the imaging device 34. (For example, move to the first floor).

  Further, according to the first embodiment, since the imaging device 34 captures a human foot when projecting the input key image of the projection device 46, the gesture recognizing unit 40 performs the motion of the foot. (Gesture) can be recognized. As a result, the motion of the foot can be recognized in a non-contact manner, so that it is not necessary to provide a sensor such as a piezoelectric sensor in front of the elevator.

  Further, according to the first embodiment, the control unit 150 performs drive control of the elevator 10 according to the imaging result of the imaging device 34, so that the reservation of the elevator 10 by a foot motion (gesture) is performed. Is possible.

  Further, according to the first embodiment, the face recognition unit 36 recognizes the face of the person who uses the elevator based on the face image of the person imaged by the imaging device 34, so that the person can be easily identified. Can be done.

  In the above embodiment, as shown in FIGS. 8A and 8B, the projection device 46 has been described in the case where the projection is performed in a state in which the numbers are arranged in ascending order. However, the present invention is not limited to this. . In order to prevent other persons in the distance from identifying the numbers input by the person using the elevator 10, the numbers are projected in a different arrangement each time as shown in FIGS. 8 (c) and 8 (d). It may be. Thereby, security can be improved.

  In the first embodiment, the control unit 150 has described the case where the detection result of the load and the moving speed is used to determine whether or not the assist is necessary. It is also possible to use facial expressions. In this case, for example, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 9, steps S18, S20 ', and S14' may be performed between steps S12 and S16. The other processing is the same as the processing in the flowchart of FIG. 6 (processing excluding steps S14, S18, and S20).

  In step S <b> 18 of FIG. 9, the control unit 150 images a human face via the imaging device 34. Next, in step S <b> 20 ′, the control unit 150 recognizes the face of the person imaged through the face recognition unit 36 (identifies the person) and also recognizes the facial expression. In this case, the face recognizing unit 36 determines whether or not the tired facial expression is based on whether or not a feature (eg, eyelid between eyebrows) that appears in the facial expression is present in the captured image. Determine whether. The eyelid between the eyebrows may be detected by storing the image of the eyelid between the eyebrows in the nonvolatile memory 48 as a reference image and detecting it by pattern matching, or from the shadow distribution of the portion between the left eye and the right eye It may be detected. Note that detection of eyelids between eyebrows is also disclosed in US Patent Publication No. 2008-292148.

  In the next step S14 ', it is determined whether or not assist is necessary based on the load, the moving speed, and the facial expression. By doing in this way, the necessity of assistance can be judged more appropriately. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the control unit 150 may determine the necessity of assistance from at least one of the load, the moving speed, and the facial expression.

  Note that the projection device 46 is not limited to projecting numeric input key images, and may project a figure (a lattice shape in which lattice points are clearly shown) as shown in FIG. In this case, a person using the elevator 10 moves his / her foot as shown in FIGS. 10B and 10C. In this case, the gesture recognizing unit 40 may recognize how to move a person's foot, and may perform authentication based on whether or not the pattern matches the pattern of how to move the foot for each person registered in advance.

  In the first embodiment, the case where the load and the moving speed are used as the information about the foot has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and information about the other foot may be used.

  In the first embodiment, the case where the control unit 150 controls the elevator 10 has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and a control unit other than the control unit 150 may control the elevator. Good. In this case, it is only necessary that the control unit 150 and another control unit can communicate with each other.

  In the first embodiment, the case where the object to be controlled by the main body 30 is the elevator 10 has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the object to be controlled may be another moving device. . Moreover, it is good also as employ | adopting the mounting part 20 and the main-body part 30 of the said 1st Embodiment as number input assistance in apartment houses, such as a condominium, and the auto-lock of a house.

  In the first embodiment, a person is specified by face authentication and authentication using a personal identification number is performed. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and only one of them may be performed. For example, when it is specified that the person is a resident of a condominium by face authentication, the input of a personal identification number may be omitted. Further, when the security level may be low, authentication such as face authentication or password authentication may be omitted.

<< Second Embodiment >>
Next, a second embodiment will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. FIG. 11 is a schematic diagram of an elevator drive control system 200 according to the second embodiment. FIG. 12 is a diagram illustrating an example of the state of the two elevators EV1 and EV2, and FIG. 13 is a block diagram of the elevator drive control system 200. Also in the second embodiment, description will be made assuming that the elevator drive control system 200 is applied to, for example, a 6-story condominium (a collective housing).

  As shown in FIG. 13, the elevator drive control system 200 includes a main body portion 130, an elevator portion 110, and each floor sensor group 180.

  The main body 130 includes a processing / control device 132 and a nonvolatile memory 148. The non-volatile memory 148 is, for example, a flash memory, and is a database (see FIG. 15A) that stores image data of a resident of an apartment in association with a floor (residential floor) where the resident lives. ), A database of gesture action images (see FIG. 15B), various data, and the like.

  The processing / control device 132 has the same configuration as the processing / control device 32 of the first embodiment. That is, the processing / control device 132 has a CPU, ROM, RAM, HDD, and input / output interface as shown in FIG. The input / output interface is an interface for connecting to external devices such as the elevator unit 110 and each floor sensor group 180. As the interface, various connection standards such as wireless / wired LAN, USB, HDMI (registered trademark), Bluetooth (registered trademark), and the like can be adopted. The processing / control device 132 exhibits functions as a face identification unit 136, a gesture recognition unit 140, a voice recognition unit 144, a timer 146, and a control unit 250, as shown in FIG. To do.

  The face identification unit 136 compares (for example, pattern matching) the face image captured by each floor image pickup device 82, which will be described later, with the image data of the apartment occupant's face stored in the nonvolatile memory 148. It is identified whether the face imaged by the imaging device 82 is the face of an apartment resident.

  The gesture recognizing unit 140 recognizes a gesture motion of a person who uses the elevator or a person who uses the elevator, based on images captured by the imaging devices 82 for each floor and the imaging devices 192A and 192B for elevators. The gesture in this case includes, for example, a gesture (“wait” gesture) that shows the palm toward the imaging devices 192A and 192B for the elevator when the door of the elevator is about to close while a plurality of people are getting off the elevator. is assumed.

  The speech recognition unit 144 has a speech recognition dictionary, and acquires speech input to the control unit 250 from each floor microphone 86 (microphone installed in the elevator hall) described later, and performs speech identification. . In the second embodiment, since it is assumed that the voice of the person who designates the destination floor of the elevator is recognized, the speech recognition dictionary stores phrase data related to the floor number such as “first floor”, “second floor”,. It shall contain.

  The timer 146 measures and predicts the time. In the second embodiment, the time until the elevators EV1 and EV2 arrive, and the time from the speed at which the resident walks the passage to the elevator hall. Used to predict

  The control unit 250 comprehensively controls the entire elevator drive control system 200 in addition to the control of each function of the main body unit 130.

  The elevator unit 110 includes drive devices 152A and 152B for driving the two elevators EV1 and EV2, elevator control units 154A and 154B, and elevator imaging devices 192A and 192B provided on the ceilings of the elevators EV1 and EV2 ( 11). In the second embodiment, although there are two elevators EV1 and EV2 in the apartment, the number of elevators may be one or three or more.

  The driving devices 152A and 152B include a driving device (such as a motor) that moves the elevators EV1 and EV2 up and down and a driving device (such as a motor) that opens and closes the doors 112 (see FIG. 11) of the elevators EV1 and EV2.

  The elevator controllers 154A and 154B perform driving control of the driving devices 152A and 152B and imaging control of the elevator imaging devices 192A and 192B under the instruction of the control unit 250 of the processing / control device 132 described above.

  The elevator imaging devices 192A and 192B include a photographing lens and an imaging element such as a CCD or a CMOS. In the second embodiment, the elevator imaging devices 192A and 192B mainly capture gestures made by a person in the elevator. Images picked up by the elevator image pickup devices 192A and 192B are transmitted to the control unit 250 of the processing / control device 132. The control unit 250 transmits the received image to the gesture recognition unit 140.

  Each floor sensor group 180 is a sensor group provided in an elevator hall on each floor from the first floor to the sixth floor. Specifically, each floor sensor group 180 includes each floor projection device 84, each floor imaging device 82, each floor microphone 86, passage sensors 62 a and 62 b, and a key sensor 89.

  FIG. 11 shows an elevator hall on the fourth floor of a condominium as an example, but a projection device 84 for each floor and an imaging device 82 for each floor are integrally provided above the elevators EV1 and EV2, and the lower side thereof In addition, microphones 86 for each floor are arranged. The passage sensors 62a and 62b are disposed on the floor. The key sensor 89 is provided at the entrance door of each dwelling unit. Note that each floor imaging device 82 and each floor projection device 84 may be provided for each of the elevators EV1 and EV2.

  Each floor projection device 84 is a device that projects (displays) an input key image 184 that allows a person to input a destination floor onto the floor surface of the elevator hall. The reason why the input key image 184 is projected on the floor is that the person who uses the elevator may hold his / her hand with his / her baggage or holding a child. Because. FIG. 11 shows a state in which each floor projection device (here, the fourth floor projection device) 84 displays an input key image 184 including the number of floors 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6. Of the numbers 1 to 6, 4 is missing because FIG. 11 shows the elevator hall on the 4th floor of the apartment, and the 4th floor cannot be designated as the destination floor. . It is assumed that the resident designates the destination floor by standing at the position of the desired floor in the projected input key image (destination floor) or pointing with the foot. In addition, although the projection apparatus 84 for each floor demonstrated the case where all the floors other than the 4th floor were displayed as the input key image 184, it is not restricted to this, For example, a passage sensor 62b moves a lower floor lane 60b by a resident When it is detected that the floor is being operated, each floor projection device 84 may display only the number of floors (1, 2, 3) of the lower floor.

  Each floor image pickup device 82 includes a photographing lens capable of picking up an area including the input key image 184 projected by each floor projection device 84 (an area wider than the input key image 184) and an image pickup element such as a CCD or a CMOS. Yes. Each floor imaging device 82 images a resident's face or images a resident's movement with respect to an input key image projected by each floor projection device 84. An image captured by each floor imaging device 82 is input to the gesture recognition unit 140 via the control unit 250. The gesture recognition unit 140 recognizes the destination floor from the position of the resident and the position of the foot by associating the position of the pixel of the image sensor of the imaging device 82 for each floor with the position where the destination floor is projected. can do. Instead of this, the gesture recognizing unit 140 may recognize a floor of a number that cannot be captured by the imaging device 82 for each floor among the five projected numbers as a destination floor. Thereby, the resident can designate the destination floor before getting on the elevator.

  In addition, the imaging device 82 for each floor is installed at a place higher than a normal person's height of about 2 m from the floor. In this way, each floor imaging device 82 can usually only capture a part of the head and face (forehead), so the resident's face is only displayed when the resident is consciously facing up. The image can be taken. Thereby, privacy of a resident can be protected.

  In addition, the image imaged by the imaging device 82 for each floor is also used for controlling the operation of closing the doors of the elevators EV1 and EV2. Specifically, the control unit 250, when the imaging device 82 for each floor changes from the state where the person in the elevator hall is picked up to the state where the person is not picked up, the driving device 152A via the elevator control part 154A or 154B. , 152B are controlled to close the door. Thereby, it can prevent that a person is pinched in the door of an elevator.

  Each floor microphone 86 is provided, for example, at a position of about 1.3 m to 1.6 m from the floor so that the position in the height direction corresponds to the position of the mouth. Each floor microphone 86 inputs the resident's voice to the control unit 250. The control unit 250 converts the resident's voice into a digital signal and inputs the digital signal to the voice recognition unit 144. The voice recognition unit 144 performs voice recognition using the digital signal of the voice.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the passage sensors 62a and 62b are arranged along the upper lane 60a and the lower lane 60b set from the hallway to the elevator hall. Note that only the lower lane 60b is set for the uppermost floor of the apartment, and only the upper lane 60a is set for the lowermost floor.

  For example, a load sensor that detects a load can be used as the passage sensors 62a and 62b. When the occupant is walking on the passage sensors 62a and 62b (load sensors), the controller The notification is sent to 250.

  In order to avoid mischief of children or the like, the passage sensors 62a and 62b notify the control unit 250 only when, for example, a load of 30 kg or more is detected, or determine that the detection result is valid. May be.

  As the passage sensors 62a and 62b, photoelectric sensors or the like can be used instead of the load sensors. In this case, similarly to the above, the passage sensors 62a and 62b may be arranged so as not to detect the movement of a person having a height of 120 cm or less in order to avoid a mischief of a child or the like. In addition, infrared sensors may be used as the passage sensors 62a and 62b.

  As shown in FIG. 12, it is assumed that the elevator EV1 is in a state where a resident is on the fifth floor, and the destination of the elevator EV1 is the first floor. On the other hand, it is assumed that the elevator EV2 is in a standby state on the second floor. Further, it is assumed that the passage sensor 62b on the fourth floor detects that the resident is moving on the lower lane 60b. In this case, the control unit 250 instructs the elevator control unit 154A of the elevator EV1 that is heading to the first floor to stop the elevator EV1 on the fourth floor.

  In FIG. 11, the width of the upper lane 60a is narrower than the width of the lower lane 60b. This is because FIG. 11 shows an elevator hall on the 4th floor of a 6-story condominium, with the lower floor having 3 floors of 1, 2 and 3 and the upper floor having 2 floors of 5 and 6. . Thus, for example, in the case of an elevator hall on the third floor, the lower floor is two of the first and second floors, and the upper floor is three of the fourth, fifth, and sixth floors. Make it wider than. For example, the upper lane 60a and the lower lane 60b may have the same width. In addition, for example, in the case of a condominium for home use, the resident often goes to the lower floor basically, so the width of the lower lane 60b is wider than the width of the upper lane 60a regardless of the floor. May be.

  In addition, the control part 250 can estimate the time when a resident | arrival arrives at an elevator hall using the passage sensors 62a and 62b. In this case, for example, the control unit 250 starts the time measurement by the timer 146 when the occupant is located in the lower lane 60b 5m away from the elevator hall, and the resident occupies the lower lane 60b 3m away from the elevator hall. By measuring the time to position, the moving speed of the occupant is obtained, and the time to arrive at the elevator hall is predicted. By predicting the time to arrive at the elevator in this way, the control unit 250 can stop the elevator at the fourth floor when there is an elevator that goes from the fourth floor to the lower floor in the arrival time. Thereby, it can suppress that the situation where a resident waits long until an elevator arrives generate | occur | produces. In this case, the passage sensor 62a. It can be said that 62b has a function as a speed detection sensor for detecting a moving speed of a person.

  In FIG. 11, a plurality of passage sensors 62a and 62b are provided intermittently. However, the present invention is not limited to this and may be provided continuously.

  The key sensor 89 detects that the key of the entrance door of each dwelling unit is locked from the outside, and outputs it to the control unit 250. In response to the output of the key sensor 89, the control unit 250 instructs the elevator control units 154A and 154B to stop the elevator at the floor where the locked entrance exists. In this case, it is assumed that the control unit 250 selects an elevator that goes to the lower floor on the assumption that the resident is locked out from the outside and is likely to go out. The control unit 250 may determine whether the resident is locked from the outside of the door or from the inside, for example, from the detection result of the infrared sensor provided on at least one of the outside or inside of the entrance, You may determine from the sensor which discriminate | determines whether the key was inserted in the keyhole. In this case, the control unit 250 may predict the time for the occupant to reach the elevator hall from the distance from the occupant's room to the elevator hall, or detect the occupant's moving speed as described above, and May arrive at the elevator hall.

  Each floor imaging device 82, each floor projection device 84, and each floor microphone 86 are normally switched off, and when a resident approaches the elevator hall through the passage sensors 62a and 62b. The control unit 250 may turn on the switches of the respective devices. Thereby, it can be set as energy saving.

  Next, processing of the elevator drive control system 200 of the second embodiment will be described in detail along the flowcharts of FIGS. 16 and 17. As a premise of this process, it is assumed that the nonvolatile memory 148 stores a database as shown in FIGS. 15A and 15B. FIG. 15A shows a resident database, which stores a resident, face data of the resident, and a residence floor. FIG. 15B is a gesture database, which stores a gesture image and the meaning of the gesture. As a premise of the processing in FIGS. 16 and 17, it is assumed that the resident is going from the first floor to the upper (residential floor).

  In the processing of FIGS. 16 and 17, first, in step S100 of FIG. 16, the control unit 250 determines whether or not there is a person in the upper lane 60a on the first floor based on the output of the passage sensor 62a. If the determination here is affirmed, the process proceeds to step S102.

  In step S102, the control unit 250 calculates the moving speed of the person moving on the first floor upper lane 60a. In this case, as described above, the control unit 250 may calculate the moving speed by measuring the time for moving a predetermined moving distance (for example, 2 m to 5 m) with the timer 146. When there are a plurality of people on the upper lane 60a on the first floor, the moving speed of the person who is likely to arrive at the elevator hall first (for example, the person closest to the elevator hall) is calculated. do it.

  Next, in step S104, the control unit 250 reserves the elevator by obtaining the time (or time) until it arrives at the elevator hall based on the moving speed calculated in step S102. For example, when a person arrives at the elevator hall after 3 seconds, the elevator waiting on a nearby floor is directed to the first floor. As a result, it is possible to get on the elevator earlier than when a person arrives at the elevator hall and calls the elevator.

  In order to reduce the cost of the elevator drive control system 200, the passage sensors 62a and 62b may not be provided. In such a case, the processing / judgment from step S100 to step S106 may be omitted.

  Next, in step S106, the control unit 250 acquires an image captured by each floor imaging device (first floor imaging device) 82, and identifies the face of the person in the elevator hall on the first floor with respect to the face identification unit 136. Give instructions to do. The face identification unit 136 compares the face image captured by the first-floor imaging device 82 with the resident face data stored in the resident database of the nonvolatile memory 148 (FIG. 15A). It is identified whether or not the face imaged by the first-floor imaging device 82 is a resident. The identification result here is transmitted from the face identification unit 136 to the control unit 250.

  Next, in step S108, the control unit 250 determines whether or not the person is a resident as a result of the face identification. For example, when there are a plurality of people in the elevator hall on the first floor and even one person cannot identify the face, the determination in step S108 is denied. Here, the case where the face cannot be identified includes a case where the first-floor imaging device 82 is not seen and a case where the person is not a resident. Even in the case where the person is not a resident, there are many cases where there is a security gate before entering the elevator hall. Therefore, in the second embodiment, movement to the upper floor is permitted.

  When the determination in step S108 is negative, the process proceeds to step S110, and the control unit 250 gives the input key image 184 to the floor surface of the first floor elevator hall for each floor projection apparatus (first floor projection apparatus) 84. Give instructions to display. The first-floor projection device 84 projects the input key image 184 (2-6 rank display) based on the instruction. It should be noted that a shift optical system is provided in the projection optical system of the first-floor projection device 84, and the control unit 250 projects the input key image 184 to the foot of the person whose face could not be identified in step S106. An instruction may be issued to the floor projection device 84. The control unit 250 may project the input key image 184 only on the feet of the person who has seen the first-floor imaging device 82, although the face cannot be identified. Thereby, the trouble of elevator operation, such as a parcel delivery company holding a load, can be saved.

  Next, in step S112, the control unit 250 causes the person to input the destination floor using the input key image 184 based on the image captured by the gesture recognition unit 140 by each floor imaging device (first floor imaging device) 82. Wait until In this case, the gesture recognizing unit 140 sets a number that cannot be recognized from the image of the first-floor imaging device 82 among the input key images 184 (floor display of 2 to 6) projected on the floor by the first-floor projection device 84 as the destination floor. recognize.

  In addition, there are a case where a person stands on the projected number and a case where the person stands unconsciously on the projected number. For this reason, for example, the gesture recognizing unit 140 may receive a movement (gesture) of a foot triggered by an operation of viewing the first-floor imaging device 82. Gesture recognizing unit 140 may accept movement of the foot (gesture) by triggering an action of pointing the palm toward first-floor imaging device 82 instead of looking at first-floor imaging device 82. On the contrary, when an operation of viewing the first-floor imaging device 82 or an operation of pointing the palm after the movement of the foot is performed, the movement of the foot may be accepted.

  It should be noted that the time for projecting the input key image 184 by each floor projection device 84 may be set, for example, between 5 seconds and 15 seconds. The control unit 250 may perform control so as to stop the projection of the input key image 184 by the first-floor projection device 84 when this set time has passed due to the time measured by the timer 146. Note that when the projection of the input key image 184 is finished without a human performing an input gesture, the subsequent elevator control may be stopped.

  When an input by a person using the input key image 184 is performed, the process proceeds to step S114. Further, in step S108 described above, also when it is determined that the person is a resident as a result of the face identification (S106) (when the determination is affirmed), the process proceeds to step S114.

  In step S114, control unit 250 determines a destination floor. Specifically, when there is a resident in the elevator hall, the control unit 250 extracts the resident residence floor from the resident database stored in the non-volatile memory 148 and extracts the residence floor. It is decided as the destination floor. If a destination floor is input in step S112, the input floor is determined as the destination floor. Thus, in the second embodiment, the destination floor can be designated before getting on the elevator.

  Next, in step S116 of FIG. 17, the control unit 250 waits until the elevator arrives at the first floor. Then, when the elevator arrives, the process proceeds to step S118. In step S118, the control unit 250 instructs the elevator control unit 154A or 154B to open the elevator door 112. The elevator controller 154A or 154B controls the driving device 152A or 152B to open the elevator door 112.

  Next, in step S120, the control unit 250 determines whether there is a person in the elevator hall based on the image captured by the first-floor imaging device 82. This step S120 is a step for keeping the elevator door 112 open until no one is in the elevator hall. Thus, an operation for a person on the elevator to keep opening the door 112 (continue to press the release button) can be omitted. If the elevator cannot be reached, the fact is notified as in the case of a normal elevator.

  There may be a person in the elevator hall who does not intend to ride the elevator. In such a case, a person who does not intend to ride the elevator performs a gesture operation such as showing a palm toward the first-floor imaging device 82 or making a batten mark with a hand or a finger. When the gesture recognition unit 140 recognizes the gesture motion, the control unit 250 is notified. In this case, the control unit 250 can handle that the presence of the person who made the gesture is not in the elevator hall. That is, if only the person who made the gesture exists in the elevator hall, the control unit 250 can determine that there is no person in the elevator hall in step S120.

  For example, the control unit 250 may treat a person who is expected to arrive at the elevator hall a few seconds later from the outputs of the passage sensors 62a and 62b as a person existing in the elevator hall. This allows the elevator door 112 to remain open when a person arrives at the elevator hall after a few seconds.

  When the control unit 250 determines in step S120 that there are no more people in the elevator hall, the process proceeds to step S122, and the control unit 250 instructs the elevator control unit 154A or 154B to close the elevator door 112. Put out. The elevator control unit 154A or 154B controls the driving device 152A or 152B to close the door 112.

  Next, in step S123, the control unit 250 instructs the elevator control unit 154A or 154B to move the elevator toward the nearest floor among the destination floors. The elevator control unit 154A or 154B controls the driving device 152A or 152B to drive the elevator. Next, in step S124, the control unit 250 determines whether or not it has arrived at the destination floor. If the determination here is affirmed, the process proceeds to step S126, and the control unit 250 opens the door 112 of the elevator.

  Next, in step S128, the control unit 250 determines whether or not the gesture recognition unit 140 has performed gesture recognition. The gesture recognition unit 140 performs gesture recognition based on an image captured by the elevator imaging device 192A or 192B and a gesture image stored in a gesture database (FIG. 15B) of the nonvolatile memory 148. When the determination in step S128 is affirmed, the process proceeds to step S130, and the control unit 250 performs control according to the gesture. For example, it is assumed that a person on the elevator spreads his hand when the door 112 is open. In this case, if the gesture matches the gesture image (J2.jpg) in the gesture database, the gesture recognizing unit 140 recognizes the gesture as an opening of the door. Then, the control unit 250 instructs the elevator control unit 154A or 154B to keep the elevator door open.

  The gestures include, for example, gestures that show the palms to the imaging devices 192A and 192B for elevators (“wait” gestures), gestures that release both hands (“open the door” gestures), The reverse gesture (“close the door” gesture) or the like may be used.

  In this case as well, when a person on the elevator performs an operation such as watching the imaging device 192A or 192B for the elevator or waving his hand, the gesture may be recognized as a trigger. Thereby, the gesture recognizing unit 140 can recognize that the person on the elevator consciously performed the gesture operation.

  After performing the control according to the gesture in step S130, the control unit 250 returns to step S128 and repeats steps S128 and S130 until the gesture motion cannot be recognized. Then, when the determination in step S128 is negative, the process proceeds to step S132, and the control unit 250 instructs the elevator control unit 154A or 154B to close the elevator door. The elevator control unit 154A or 154B controls the driving device 152A or 152B to close the door 112.

  In the next step S134, the control unit 250 determines whether the destination floor determined in step S114 still remains (whether there is a destination floor that has not arrived). When determination here is affirmed, it returns to step S123 and repeats the process after step S123. On the other hand, if the determination in step S134 is negative, all the processes in FIGS. 6 and 7 are terminated. Thereafter, the processes of FIGS. 6 and 7 are repeatedly executed.

  In FIG. 16 and FIG. 17, as an example, the processing in the case where there is a person on the upper lane 60a on the first floor is not limited to this. Similar processing is performed when there is a person. In this case, when there is an output from the key sensor 89, the control unit 250 omits steps S100 to S112 in FIG. 16 and determines the first floor as the destination floor in the processing of determining the destination floor in step S114. It is good as well.

  In the second embodiment, each floor microphone 86 and the voice recognition unit 144 are prepared. Instead of specifying the destination floor using the input key image 184 in steps S110 and S112 of FIG. 16, or At the same time, designation of a destination floor by voice may be accepted.

Note that the elevator control units 154A and 154B may perform control without receiving an instruction from the control unit 250 for at least part of the elevator opening / closing control (for example, control without face recognition or gesture recognition). Good.

  As described above in detail, according to the second embodiment, based on the detection results of the passage sensors 62a and 62b that detect that a person has passed through the passage (the upper lane 60a and the lower lane 60b). Since the controller 250 reserves the use of the elevators EV1 and EV2, the controller 250 can reserve the use of the elevators EV1 and EV2 before the person arrives at the elevator hall. As a result, the time required until the elevator arrives can be shortened, so that the convenience of the elevator can be improved.

  In addition, according to the second embodiment, the control unit 250 can detect the moving speed of the subject based on the detection results of the passage sensors 62a and 62b. The use of the elevators EV1 and EV2 can be reserved. In this case, the control unit 250 predicts the time when a person arrives in front of the elevators EV1 and EV2 (elevator hall) based on the moving speed, and the elevators EV1 and EV2 so as to arrive at the predicted time. Reserve the use of EV2. Thereby, the convenience of an elevator can be improved.

  Further, according to the second embodiment, the elevators EV1 and EV2 are movable in the vertical direction, the passage sensor 62a detects that a person using the elevator wants to move to the upper floor, and the passage sensor 62b Since it is detected that the person using the elevator wants to move to the lower floor, the reservation of the elevator can be performed in consideration of the moving direction of the person using the elevator.

  In the second embodiment, the width of the upper floor lane 60a in which the passage sensor 62a is disposed and the width of the lower floor lane 60b in which the passage sensor 62b is disposed can be made different. By doing so, it becomes possible to improve usability in consideration of the actual situation (usage frequency, etc.) of each floor.

  In the second embodiment, since the control unit 250 reserves an elevator when the size (weight or height) of the person who uses the elevator is greater than or equal to a predetermined value, it is possible for the child to mischief. Can be prevented.

  In the second embodiment, when there is an output of the key sensor 89 that detects that the entrance door of each dwelling unit is locked from the outside, the control unit 250 uses the elevator based on the output. Therefore, it is possible to improve the usability of the elevator for those who use the elevator after locking.

  In this case, since the door is often moved downward after the entrance is locked, it is possible to further improve the usability by reserving the downward movement of the elevator in consideration of this situation.

  Further, in the second embodiment, the face identification unit 138 identifies the resident's face and the data on the resident's residence floor (resident database) registered in the nonvolatile memory 148. Since the destination floor of the elevator is determined, the resident is not required to perform an operation for specifying the number of floors of the elevator. Thereby, it becomes possible to improve the usability of the elevator.

  In the second embodiment, the controller 250 closes the elevator door when the elevator hall changes from a state where a person is present to a state where a person is not present. Even if the rider or the rider does not operate the elevator, the elevator door can be closed at an appropriate timing.
