Abstract (en)

A method for dispatching an elevator car (C1,C2) from one floor (L) to another floor (30) of a building includes automatically detecting a passenger within an elevator car (C1,C2) parked at a floor (L) of a building, and then sending the elevator car (CC) to another floor (30) of the building in response to the automatic detection of the passenger. A preferred arrangement includes a controller for generating a car dispatch signal (CC) for dispatching an elevator car (C1,C2) from one floor (L) to another (30), a passenger detector which automatically detects a passenger within the car (C1,C2) and which automatically generates a passenger detection signal (PS) receivable by the controller, and a means for causing the controller to generate the car dispatch signal (CC) in response to the passenger detection signal (PS). The car dispatch signal causes parts of the controller to command closing the car doors (16) and sending the car (C1,C2) to the other floor. <IMAGE>
