Computer vision for system protection of elevators

Abstract

Abstract With rapid development of computer vision (CV), traditional elevator control and protection technology have begun to integrate with CV technology in order to improve safety of elevators. By introducing CV technology, the real-time state monitoring of elevator components is realized, the elevator door control system based on CV is proposed, and the abnormal behavior of passengers in the elevator car is identified and alarmed. Based on summarizing the basic principles of CV technology, this paper summarized the application of CV technology in elevator safety from two aspects: equipment safety and passenger safety. Finally, the future trends of CV-based system protection of elevators are discussed.
