Abstract: An elevator system includes a first elevator car (28) constructed and arranged to move in a first lane (30, 32, 34) and a first propulsion system (40) constructed and arranged to propel the first elevator. An electronic processor of the elevator system is configured to selectively control power delivered to the first propulsion system (40). The electronic processor includes a software-based power estimator configured to receive a first weight signal and a run trajectory signal for calculating a power estimate and comparing the power estimate to a maximum power allowance. The electronic processor is configured to output an automated command signal if the power estimate exceeds the maximum power allowance.

Abstract: An illustrative example embodiment of an elevator system (20) includes a destination entry device (22) configured to allow a passenger to indicate an intended destination prior to entering an elevator car (24, 26, 28) and at least one detector (32, 36, 38) configured to detect a proximity between the passenger and at least one other individual that has not indicated an intended destination. A controller (30) is configured to determine whether the detected proximity between the passenger and the at least one other individual satisfies at least one criterion indicating that the at least one other individual likely is associated with the passenger, will board an elevator car (24, 26, 28) with the passenger, and will travel to the intended destination with the passenger. The controller (30) is configured to assign an elevator car (24, 26, 28) to carry the passenger and the at least one other individual to the intended destination when the detected proximity satisfies the at least one criterion.

Abstract: A shuttle elevator loading system (300) includes a plurality of shuttle elevators (302a, 302b, 302c) configured to service a building lobby (304). At least one sensor (306a, 306b, 306c, 306z) is configured to detect at least one passenger (308a, 308b, 308c, 308z) and at least one display unit (310a, 310b, 310c, 310z) is located at a display zone (312a, 312b, 312c, 312z) of the lobby. An elevator system controller (314) is in signal communication with the at least one sensor and the at least one display unit. The elevator system controller determines a number of allocated passengers corresponding to each shuttle elevator and generates assignment information that directs a non-allocated passenger to an available shuttle elevator.

Abstract: A method includes receiving a passenger request to reserve an elevator car of an elevator system to travel to a targeted destination. At least two different travel options (404A, 404B) to the targeted destination are determined based on a plurality of elevator car travel plans comprising at least two elevator cars having different travel ranges. The at least two different travel options (404A, 404B) are output to an interactive display (204). At least one of the at least two elevator cars is reserved responsive to a user selection of one of the at least two different travel options (404A, 404B).
