Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A method and system for providing destination dispatch in an elevator control system, includes identifying a user, retrieving a user profile associated with the user, receiving a destination request associated with the user, analyzing the user profile and the destination request, determining a plurality of assignments, identifying a preferred assignment of the plurality of assignments, and prompting the user to opt-out of the preferred assignment.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A method for providing destination dispatch in an elevator control system, comprising: identifying a user; retrieving a user profile associated with the user, wherein the user profile includes a plurality of user preferences, the plurality of user preferences being weighted to prioritize the plurality of user preferences; receiving a destination request associated with the user; analyzing the user profile and the destination request; determining a plurality of assignments; identifying a preferred assignment of the plurality of assignments, the preferred assignment identified in response to the weighted plurality of user preferences; and prompting the user to opt-out of the preferred assignment. 2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising receiving an alternative assignment of the plurality of assignments from the user. 3. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the destination request in the user profile. 4. The method of claim 1 , wherein identifying the user comprises identifying the user via a portable device. 5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising transmitting the user profile to the elevator control system. 6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising storing the user profile in the elevator control system. 7. A system for providing destination dispatch in an elevator control system, comprising: a user interface to identify a user, retrieve a user profile associated with the user, and receive a destination request associated with the user; wherein the user profile includes a plurality of user preferences, the plurality of user preferences being weighted to prioritize the plurality of user preferences; and a controller to analyze the user profile and the destination request to determine a plurality of assignments, wherein the user interface identifies a preferred assignment of the plurality of assignments and prompts the user to opt-out of the preferred assignment; wherein the preferred assignment is identified in response to the weighted plurality of user preferences. 8. The system of claim 7 , wherein the user interface receives an alternative assignment of the plurality of assignments from the user. 9. The system of claim 7 , wherein the destination request is stored in the user profile. 10. The system of claim 7 , wherein a portable device communicates with the user interface to identify the user. 11. The system of claim 7 , wherein the user profile is transmitted to the elevator control system.
