Description

  The present invention relates to an elevator information presentation system that presents information corresponding to a user of each elevator in an elevator system including a plurality of elevators.

Conventionally, as an elevator information presentation system, a device for presenting display contents corresponding to an elevator user has been studied.
For example, in an information presentation device in a car, means for displaying a message directed to a specific user has been proposed (for example, see Patent Document 1).
Also, in order to avoid such information presentation from being able to be transmitted before getting off, the travel time from the elevator floor to the exit floor is recorded in advance, and only the information that the total display time does not exceed the travel time Has also been proposed (for example, see Patent Document 2).
Furthermore, as an attempt to realize information presentation targeting a specific user and increase the effectiveness of information presentation, an elevator user is identified by face recognition based on an IC tag or an image, and the information presentation device in the elevator Has proposed a system that presents information according to the specified user attributes (see, for example, Patent Document 3).
In addition, a system has been proposed that switches the guidance display in the platform and the car based on information such as the floor on which the user boarded and whether or not a specific call button has been pressed (see, for example, Patent Document 4). . The purpose of this system is to present the operation status of an elevator in an easy-to-understand manner to the user by switching the guidance display in the hall or car according to the floor on which the boarding is carried out.

  On the other hand, as an elevator operation control system, an operation system that improves transport efficiency by guiding a specific user to a specific car has been studied. For example, a system has been proposed in which the destination floor of a user waiting at a landing is predicted and the operation efficiency is improved by guiding a user on the same destination floor to the same car (for example, see Patent Document 5). In this system, a user standing by at a landing is photographed with a camera, and the destination floor of each user is predicted based on the image.

JP 2007-276961 A JP 2002-104747 A JP 2013-39995 A Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 08-277074 JP 2008-44711 A

  In a conventional elevator car information presentation device, the information presented in the car is not necessarily content that is of interest to many of the users on the car. In particular, in an elevator in which a plurality of unspecified users ride at the same time, it has been difficult to present information that is common to the passengers that are on board.

For example, in the system of Patent Document 1, information intended for a specific authenticated individual is to be presented. On the other hand, when another user rides, the information is directed to the authenticated individual. Information is not displayed. Information presentation based on the result of personal authentication may be able to present information of interest to the individual, but on the other hand, if there is a passenger, it will be a privacy issue and will be of interest to the passenger. There was a problem that no information was presented.
Further, in the system of Patent Document 2, the travel time from a certain floor to the destination floor is recorded in advance, and information is presented so that the total display time is within the travel time. Therefore, this system is useful for transmitting the contents of information without shortage, but does not contribute to presenting contents that are of high interest to the user who is on board.

Further, in Patent Document 3, as in the system of Patent Document 1, a system is proposed in which a specific individual is authenticated and information is presented based on the attribute of the authenticated individual. Even in this case, while it is possible to provide highly interested information to a specific individual, if there are multiple passengers, there is a risk of privacy issues and information that may not be of interest to passengers. there were. Even if different information is presented to each of a plurality of passengers, the presentation time (or presentation space) assigned to one piece of information is reduced, such as dividing and assigning the limited time until getting off to information to be presented. There arises a problem that the amount of information that can be transmitted to each individual is reduced.
In addition, in Patent Document 4, since the system switches the display in the platform and the car according to the floor on which a certain user gets on and the button pressed at the time of calling, a user with various interests gets on. However, it was difficult to solve the problem that it was difficult to select appropriate display information.
Further, in Patent Document 5, since the main purpose is to improve the operation efficiency, the operation state is not associated with the presentation of information in the platform or the car.

  The present invention has been made to solve such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide an elevator information presentation system capable of providing information of high interest to many users.

  The elevator information presentation system according to the present invention includes a destination floor input device that receives an input of an elevator destination floor, and an elevator operation that determines an operation pattern of a plurality of elevators based on the destination floor information received by the destination floor input device. According to the control unit, the operation pattern determined by the elevator operation control unit and the information on the destination floor received by the destination floor input device, the car determination unit that determines the car to be used by the user, and the user attribute, The information processing apparatus includes a presentation information determination unit that determines presentation information corresponding to a car determined by the passenger car determination unit, and an information presentation device that displays the presentation information determined by the presentation information determination unit.

  The elevator information presentation system according to the present invention determines a car to be used by the user according to the information on the destination floor of the user, and presents information corresponding to the car determined according to the attribute of the user. Is to be determined. Thereby, information with high interest can be provided to many users.

Hereinafter, in order to explain the present invention in more detail, modes for carrying out the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Embodiment 1 FIG.
In the present embodiment, users on the same destination floor guide the user to get on the same car, and the information presentation device in the platform or the car provides information related to the destination floor.
In department stores and shopping malls, there are often stores that handle products and services of the same category on each floor. Even office buildings may have different companies on each floor. Thus, in many buildings, roles and functions are set for each floor. Therefore, it can be said that the user who selected the same destination floor has a high possibility of having a similar interest. Therefore, in the first embodiment, a user who selects the same destination floor is put on the same car, and information that is likely to be common to the users in the car is presented. In addition, a user who selects the same destination floor is guided to the same platform, and information related to the destination floor is presented at the platform. This makes it possible to present information that is of great interest to many of the plurality of users present. Here, the landing means a landing corresponding to a specific car.

  In order to realize such information presentation, the elevator information presentation system of Embodiment 1 has the configuration shown in FIG. The elevator information presentation system shown in FIG. 1 includes a destination floor input device 1, a car determination unit 2, a car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3, a car guide device 4, an elevator operation control unit 5, and a car presentation information determination unit. 6, a presentation information holding unit 7, a destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8, a platform presentation information determination unit 9, a platform information presentation device 10, and an in-car information presentation device 11.

The destination floor input device 1 is a device that is provided in an elevator hall and receives destination floor input from an elevator user. A user's operation is accepted and destination floor information indicating a destination floor corresponding to the user's operation is held. For example, a button corresponding to each floor, a slider for indicating a destination floor, and a touch panel may be provided. A microphone or a device necessary for voice recognition processing may be provided so that the destination floor can be input by voice operation.
Further, the destination floor input device 1 may be configured to determine the destination floor without the user's operation. For example, it comprises using the communication apparatus which communicates with the terminal which an elevator user hold | maintains. With this communication device, destination floor information may be received from the terminal, or ID information for identifying the individual user may be received. A storage unit that holds ID information and information that maps the destination floor may be provided separately, and the destination floor may be automatically determined from the personal ID information with reference to the storage unit.

The boarding car determination unit 2 is a processing unit that determines a car to be boarded by each user with reference to the destination floor information held by the destination floor input device 1 and the car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3. Thereafter, the determined car information can be referred to from the boarding car guide device 4.
The car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3 is a storage unit that holds a car-destination floor correspondence relationship in which a car number to be used is written according to the destination floor of the user. This car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3 is referred to by the car determining unit 2, and is used when the car determining unit 2 determines a car to be used by each user. Further, it is also referred to from the platform presentation information determination unit 9 and used to know which floor each platform is associated with. It is used to determine information to be presented to the landing. An example is shown in FIG.

  The car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3 held in the car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3 may be updated at an arbitrary timing by an arbitrary method. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, car A corresponds to the fifth floor of the destination floor, and there is no other car corresponding to the fifth floor, but let's go to the fifth floor at the landing from the first floor to the fourth floor. When the number of users waiting for the car A exceeds the capacity, the car B may be updated as a car corresponding to the fourth floor and the fifth floor if the car B is not full. In this way, a user who intends to go to the fifth floor is guided to the landing where the car B arrives, and even if the number of people waiting for the car A reaches the capacity, the elevator can be used without increasing the waiting time.

  The boarding car guide apparatus 4 is an apparatus provided in the elevator hall, and guides the user to the boarding area and the car by an arbitrary guidance means using the car determined by the boarding car determination unit 2 as an input. As guidance means, voice, illuminance change, video, etc. may be presented with a speaker, illumination, display, etc., or communication means is provided and information necessary for guidance by communicating with a mobile terminal held by the user May be presented from a mobile terminal. Further, a floor image or a display device installed in a building may be used.

  The elevator operation control unit 5 is a control unit that controls the raising and lowering of a plurality of elevator cars. Further, the elevator operation control unit 5 holds the operation schedule of each car, that is, information such as the current location, the current destination floor, and the future destination floor. Decide which car to move to which floor, and control the car based on that information.

The in-car presentation information determination unit 6 is a presentation information determination unit for determining information to be presented to each car in accordance with the operation status of the elevator. This in-car presentation information determination unit 6 refers to the elevator operation control unit 5 and obtains as input the floor that the user in each car is the destination floor. Further, the correspondence relationship between the destination floor and the information to be presented is obtained by referring to the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8. Based on these pieces of information, information to be presented to each car is determined. The determined presentation information is obtained from the presentation information holding unit 7 and output to the corresponding car information presentation device 11.
The presentation information holding unit 7 is a storage unit for holding presentation information corresponding to the destination floor.

  The destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8 is a storage unit for holding information on the correspondence relationship between the destination floor and the presentation information. An example is shown in FIG. As shown in the figure, the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table is a table showing presentation information corresponding to the destination floor, and the presentation information a, b, c,... Shown in the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holds presentation information. Held in part 7.

  The platform presentation information determination unit 9 is a presentation information determination unit that refers to the car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3 and the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8 and determines information to be presented to the platform information presentation device 10. is there. Further, the determined information is obtained from the presentation information holding unit 7 and output to the corresponding platform information presentation device 10.

  The platform information presentation device 10 is a device that is installed at a platform of an elevator hall and presents information given from the platform presentation information determination unit 9. The platform information presentation device 10 may be of any type as long as it is a device that can be converted into a phenomenon that can be perceived by the user or a phenomenon that affects the user. For example, it may be a video display, a speaker, a vibrator, an illumination, a robot, information presenting means for staff of an elevator guide, or the like.

  The in-car information presentation device 11 is a device that is installed in an elevator car and presents information given from the in-car presentation information determination unit 6. The car information presentation device 11 may be of any type as long as it is a device that can be converted into a phenomenon that can be perceived by the user or a phenomenon that affects the user. For example, it may be a video display, a speaker, a vibrator, an illumination, a robot, information presenting means for guidance staff in an elevator car, or the like.

Next, the operation of the elevator information presentation system according to Embodiment 1 will be described.
FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing an operation when the user inputs a destination floor.
First, the destination floor input device 1 receives an input from a user and holds the destination floor of the user (step ST1). For example, if the destination floor input device 1 is a terminal provided with a button on each floor, the floor information corresponding to the pressed button is set as the destination floor. The destination floor input device 1 holds this destination floor information.
Next, the car determination unit 2 refers to the operation schedule for each car held by the elevator operation control unit 5, the destination information input by the user and the correspondence information of the car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3, The car that the user should ride is selected (step ST2). As an example, consider a case where a new user comes to the 5th floor. It is assumed that the user inputs “3rd floor” with the destination floor input device 1. According to the car-destination floor correspondence information shown in FIG. 2, the car assigned to the destination floor “third floor” is car C. Therefore, the passenger car determination unit 2 determines that this user should get on the car C.

  In addition, depending on the contents of the car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3, a plurality of cars corresponding to a specific destination floor may be found. In this case, it is possible to select which car to guide by referring to information other than the destination floor (step ST3). Here, a case where a single car is selected with reference to information other than the destination floor will be described. As an example, consider the case where priority is set in consideration of the operation status of the elevator managed by the elevator operation control unit 5 (step ST4). The elevator operation control unit 5 is inquired, and the most vacant car is determined as the passenger car of the user among the found cars. Alternatively, the car with the shortest time to reach the calling floor may be determined as the user's car.

  When a plurality of cars are found, the list of found cars may be disclosed to the user and selected by the user. Or guidance may be shown that any of a plurality of cars may be selected. Also, if the elevator operation control unit 5 and other components know the travel time to the destination floor, if there are multiple cars corresponding to the destination floor, the car that can arrive at the destination floor in the shortest time Alternatively, the user may be guided preferentially.

  If there is a single car corresponding to the destination floor (NO in step ST3), the boarding car determination unit 2 selects the car having the highest priority when a plurality of cars are found (step ST3 YES), the car is determined to be used by the user (step ST5).

  Next, the boarding car guide device 4 performs guidance for guiding the user toward the landing where the car determined by the boarding car determination unit 2 arrives (step ST6). Through the operations so far, the guided platform includes the user who has been guided this time and other users who arrive at the platform. In addition, these users gather together at the platform for each destination floor according to the correspondence information in the car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3.

  In addition, the elevator operation control unit 5 updates the operation schedule of the car so that the determined car picks up the user (step ST7).

Next, the operation of presenting information in the car and the operation of presenting information at the landing will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.
First, the operation of presenting information in the car will be described. For each car, information is presented by the following operations. Note that the following operation may be performed when the presented information is interrupted or when the destination floor of a certain car is changed. As a specific example, video or audio information having a certain length of time is presented, and the timing at which it ends is given.

  The in-car presentation information determination unit 6 refers to the current destination floor information of each car managed by the elevator operation control unit 5, and knows the destination floor to which a certain car (car C) is heading (step ST11). . In this case, the floor on which the car C stops in order to newly board the user is referred to as an intermediate stop floor and is distinguished from the destination floor. That is, the in-car presentation information determining unit 6 refers to the destination floor where the user in the car is about to get off, and does not refer to the intermediate stop floor of the car C. This is an operation based on the assumption that the destination floor is strongly related to the user's interest.

  Next, the car presentation information determination unit 6 selects information related to the destination floor of the car C. For example, in this selection, a correspondence table between the destination floor and the presentation information is held in advance in the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8, and information to be presented is selected with reference to this correspondence table. When the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table has the contents shown in FIG. 3, for example, when the car C is operating on the third floor as the destination floor, the in-car presentation information determination unit 6 displays information corresponding to the third floor. The presentation information is determined as information a, b, and c (step ST12).

Next, the car presentation information determination unit 6 extracts the information a, b, c determined in step ST12 from the presentation information holding unit 7, and outputs the information to the car information presentation device 11 (step ST13).
With the above operation, information on the floor on which the user is about to get off can be presented to the user already in the car.

  Next, the operation of presenting information at the platform will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG. The following operations may also be performed when the presented information is interrupted or when a new user arrives at the landing. As a specific example, video or audio information having a certain length of time is presented, and the timing at which it ends is given. In the following operation, a case will be described as an example in which information to be presented to the landing information presenting apparatus 10 installed at the landing where the car C arrives (this is referred to as landing C) is determined on the first floor.

  The platform presentation information determination unit 9 first refers to the car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3 and acquires to which destination floor the car C (station C) is assigned. For example, if the car-destination floor correspondence information holding part 3 of the car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3 has the contents shown in FIG. 2, it knows that the car C (stop C) is assigned to the third floor (step ST11). .

  Next, the platform presentation information determination unit 9 selects information corresponding to the destination floor to which the car C is assigned based on the information in the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8. For example, when the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table of the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8 has the contents shown in FIG. 3, the presentation information is based on the fact that the car C is assigned to the third floor. , B, c (step ST12).

  Next, the platform presentation information determination unit 9 extracts the information a, b, c determined in step ST12 from the presentation information holding unit 7, and outputs this to the platform information presentation device 10. As a result, information about the floor on which the user is about to get off is presented to the user who is about to get on the car while waiting for the car (step ST13).

  In addition, in order to make the information presented by the car information presentation device 11 in the car C and the information presented by the landing information presentation device 10 at the landing C where the car arrives correspond to the destination floor-presentation information correspondence Tables are prepared separately for each platform and car, and the car presentation information determination unit 6 and the platform presentation information determination unit 9 determine information to be displayed on each of the car information presentation device 11 and the platform information presentation device 10. In doing so, the presentation information may be determined with reference to separate tables prepared for each.

As described above, in the present embodiment, based on the destination floor information input to the destination floor input device 1, the passenger car determination unit 2 assigns the user to each car, and further, based on the result of the assignment, There is a feature in that the car presentation information determination unit 6 or the platform presentation information determination unit 9 presents information related to the destination floor in the car or the platform.
The effect of this is to improve the effectiveness of information presentation. Users who select the same destination floor get on the same car (guide to the same platform), and if they present information related to the destination floor in that car (at that platform), the user who got there It is possible to present information of high interest to many of them. Here, the information related to the destination floor includes advertisements related to stores on the destination floor, a map of the destination floor, news related to the type of business of the company occupying the destination floor, and the like. This has the effect of increasing the advertising value when displaying an advertisement. In the case of displaying facility information, since all the time available for information presentation can be occupied by information on a specific destination floor, there is an effect that more facility information can be provided to all users.
Note that it is not essential to present information both in the car and at the platform, and only one of them may be provided.

  In addition, guiding the users who go to the same destination floor to get on the same car together will cause all people to get off when the car stops next time. Therefore, it will also help avoid confusion when getting on and off. When users with various destination floors are in one car, there was a problem that it was difficult for the users who were at the back of the car to get off when they stopped on one floor. In the first embodiment, since users on the same destination floor get on the same car, many users can get off at the same time when getting on and off, and the problem that it is difficult to get off is solved.

  As described above, according to the elevator information presentation system of the first embodiment, the destination floor input device that receives the input of the destination floor of the elevator, and a plurality of units based on the information of the destination floor received by the destination floor input device. An elevator operation control unit that determines an elevator operation pattern, a passenger car determination unit that determines a car to be used by a user according to the operation pattern determined by the elevator operation control unit and destination floor information received by the destination floor input device; A presentation information determination unit that determines presentation information corresponding to the car determined by the car determination unit, and an information presentation device that displays the presentation information determined by the presentation information determination unit according to the attributes of the user Since it is provided, it is possible to provide highly interested information to many users.

  Further, according to the elevator information presentation system of the first embodiment, since the attribute is information on the destination floor of the user, it is possible to provide information with high interest to many users, and at the time of getting on and off Confusion can also be avoided.

Embodiment 2. FIG.
In Embodiment 1, only users with the same destination floor are guided to the same platform or the same car. However, if the number of cars is lower than the number of floors where the elevator stops, It may be difficult to prepare different baskets. In addition, if only users on the same destination floor are ridden in the same car, there is a concern that waiting time may increase if the number of cars is insufficient.
Therefore, in the second embodiment, several floors are treated as one group (herein referred to as a floor group), and a user having the same floor group on the destination floor is guided to the same platform and the same car. .

  In a commercial facility, it is described that similar stores are arranged on each floor, but similar stores may be arranged across a plurality of floors. For example, this is the case where only restaurants are located on the 7th and 8th floors. In such a case, the 7th and 8th floors are treated as one floor group, and a user who wants to go to the 7th and 8th floors guides to the same platform and the same car.

  FIG. 6 is a configuration diagram illustrating the elevator information presentation system according to the second embodiment. The elevator information presentation system of the second embodiment includes a destination floor input device 1, a car determination unit 2a, a car-destination floor correspondence information holding unit 3, a car guide device 4, an elevator operation control unit 5, and in-car presentation information determination. Unit 6, presentation information holding unit 7, destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8 a, platform presentation information determination unit 9, platform information presentation device 10, car information presentation device 11, and floor group table holding unit 12. The floor group table holding unit 12 is a storage unit that holds a floor group table indicating the correspondence between each floor and the floor group. In addition, when the destination floor is input to the destination floor input device 1, the passenger car determination unit 2 a refers to the correspondence between each floor and the floor group held by the floor group table holding unit 12, and sets the destination floor to the floor. It is configured so that the user decides the car to be boarded so that the user who reads the group and designates the same floor group as the destination is guided to the same platform and the same car. Further, the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8a holds the correspondence between each floor group and the presentation information instead of the destination floor. Since other configurations are the same as those of the first embodiment, the same reference numerals are given to corresponding portions, and descriptions thereof are omitted.

Next, the operation of the elevator information presentation system according to the second embodiment will be described.
When the destination floor is input to the destination floor input device 1, the passenger car determination unit 2a refers to the floor group table held by the floor group table holding unit 12 and reads the destination floor as a floor group. Then, the car to be boarded by the user is determined so that the user who designates the same floor group as the destination is guided to the same platform and the same car. In addition, since the destination floor-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 8a holds the correspondence relationship between each floor group and the presentation information, the car presentation information determination unit 6 and the platform presentation information determination unit 9 are described in the embodiment. The presentation information corresponding to the floor group is determined instead of the first destination floor. Other operations are the same as those in the first embodiment.

  As described above, according to the elevator information presentation system of the second embodiment, a plurality of destination floors are set as one floor group, and a floor group table holding unit indicating a correspondence relationship between the floor group and the car is provided, and a car is determined. The department refers to the floor group table holding section, acquires information on the car of the floor group corresponding to the destination floor received by the destination floor input device, and determines the acquired car as a car to be used by the user. Therefore, the same effect as in the first embodiment can be obtained with a smaller number of cars. In addition, when the number of cars is small, an increase in waiting time can be suppressed even if the cars are divided according to destination floors.

Embodiment 3 FIG.
In the third embodiment, not only the destination floor but also the users who visit sequentially are assigned to a certain car based on the single or plural attributes of the users. At this time, it assigns so that users with common attributes use the same car. Next, the user is guided to the platform where the car arrives. Then, information that will be of interest to the user is presented from the information presentation device in the car or at the platform waiting for the car. Information that would be of common interest is selected based on the attributes referenced at the time of car assignment. By allowing users having similar attributes to use the same platform or the same car, it is possible to present information of high interest to a plurality of users present from the information presentation device.

  FIG. 7 is a configuration diagram illustrating the elevator information presentation system according to the third embodiment. The elevator information presentation system of Embodiment 3 includes a destination floor input device 1, a car determination unit 2b, a car guide device 4, an elevator operation control unit 5, a car presentation information determination unit 6, a presentation information holding unit 7, a landing A presentation information determination unit 9, a landing information presentation device 10, an in-car information presentation device 11, an attribute determination unit 13, a car-attribute value correspondence information holding unit 14, and an attribute value-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 15 are provided.

The attribute determination unit 13 may include, for example, an image recognition device or a voice recognition device that includes any of face authentication technology, gender recognition technology, age estimation technology, and the like. In addition, a personal authentication device using fingerprints, palm prints, glows, and voice prints, an authentication device that communicates with a medium storing ID information such as an IC card, and the like may be included. The car-attribute value correspondence information holding unit 14 is a storage unit that holds car-attribute value correspondence information indicating car information corresponding to a destination floor and an attribute. And is referenced from. FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of car-attribute value correspondence information.

  When the destination floor is input to the destination floor input device 1, the passenger car determination unit 2 b sets the car-attribute value correspondence information holding unit 14 based on the information on the destination floor and the attribute information recognized by the attribute determination unit 13. It is configured to refer to and determine a corresponding car. The attribute value-presentation information correspondence table holding unit 15 is a storage unit that holds an attribute value-presentation information correspondence table indicating a relationship between presentation information corresponding to a destination floor and an attribute value. Since each other structure is the same as that of Embodiment 1, the same code | symbol is attached | subjected to corresponding part and the description is abbreviate | omitted.

Next, the operation of the elevator information presentation system according to the third embodiment will be described.
FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing an operation when a user visits in the elevator information presentation system of the third embodiment.
When a new user visits the elevator hall, the attribute determination unit 13 acquires the attribute value of the user (step ST21). For example, the attribute determination unit 13 takes a picture of the user with a camera installed in the elevator hall. Based on this image, the attribute determination unit 13 estimates the user's attribute. As this attribute, for example, it is acquired by image recognition whether or not the child is accompanied by a parent in the relationship with the accompanying person, and the recognition result is held as the attribute value of the user.
