Intelligent building system for altering elevator operation based upon passenger identification
First Claim
1. A method of controlling one or more elevators by an intelligent building system, the method comprising:
- receiving, by the intelligent building system comprising a processor coupled to a memory, one or more elevator calls initiated by one or more passengers, each elevator call comprising a passenger identification corresponding to a passenger initiating the elevator call;
procuring, by the intelligent building system in response to each of the one or more elevator calls, passenger preference information based on each passenger identification;
grouping, by the intelligent building system, the one or more passengers with respect to the passenger preference information to produce one or more passenger groups; and
controlling, by the intelligent building system, the one or more elevators to collect the one or more passenger groups,wherein the passenger preference information is procured from one or more social media sources based on a mining operation,wherein the mining operation enables production of one or more profiles storing preferences of the one or more passengers,wherein the mining operation is executed periodically obtain preference updates for the one or more profiles from the one or more social media sources.
