    Abstract: A control system and method for elevator-waiting position of a robotic passenger. A control system for elevator-waiting position of a robotic passenger includes: a detection device configured to detect whether a first-choice elevator-waiting position has been occupied; and a position allocation unit configured to if the first-choice elevator-waiting position is not occupied, determine the first-choice elevator-waiting position as a target elevator-waiting position; and if the first-choice elevator-waiting position has been occupied, determine a candidate elevator-waiting position as the target elevator-waiting position or issue a prompt.

    Abstract: An interaction safety control between an elevator system and a machine passenger. An interaction safety control method between an elevator system and a machine passenger, which includes: receiving a command from the machine passenger; based on a received command, determining the safety of the command with respect to the elevator system; and in case that the command is determined to be unsafe with respect to the elevator system, not sending the command to an elevator control device of the elevator system.

    Abstract: A monitoring system for a passenger conveyor including: at least one acceleration sensor provided on a movable component of the passenger conveyor, wherein the moveable component moves in a closed loop path (P) when the passenger conveyor is in use; a fault detection sensor associated with the or each acceleration sensor and configured to provide data indicative of a fault in the moveable. The monitoring system includes a controller configured to: receive data from the or each acceleration sensor; monitor a gravity vector (V) of the or each acceleration sensor; determine a direction of travel of the or each acceleration sensor; determine a current location of the or each acceleration sensor based on the monitored gravity vector (V) and the determined direction of travel; detect a fault from the data received from the or each fault detection sensor; identify a location of the detected fault.

    Abstract: An elevator car (42; 103) for carrying a load in a vertical direction. The elevator car includes at least one elevator car door (38) carrying a door coupling (20) and a camera mount (40) comprising a mounting location (46) for a camera (44). The camera mount (40) is located at the top of the elevator car (42) with the mounting location (46) positioned for a camera (44) to monitor the door coupling (20). The camera mount is deformable at least in the vertical direction, when acted on by a downwards force, such as to protect the door coupling (20) from being impacted by the camera mount (40).
