Elevator notifications on mobile device associated with user identification device
First Claim
1. An elevator dispatch control system configured to control an elevator system, the elevator dispatch control system comprising:
- an elevator system database configured to store a device identifier of an electronic user identification (UserID) device assigned to an authorized user of the elevator system, and contact information of a user device assigned to a given UserID device assigned to the authorized user;
an electronic UserID detection device configured to detect a UserID device and extract the device identifier;
an electronic ride request unit configured to detect a ride request of a user; and
an electronic elevator controller in communication with the UserID device and the ride request unit, the elevator controller configured to determine contact information of the user based on a comparison between the extracted device identifier and the plurality of stored device identifiers, and to transmit elevator car assignment information to the user device associated with the UserID device based on the determined contact information.

Abstract
An elevator dispatch control system includes an electronic UserID detection device that detects a UserID device and extracts a device identifier associated with the UserID device. An electronic ride request unit detects a ride request of a user. An electronic elevator controller is in communication with the UserID device and the ride request unit. The elevator controller determines contact information of the user based on a comparison between the extracted device identifier and a plurality of stored device identifiers stored in a database. The elevator controller transmits elevator car assignment information to the user device associated with the UserID device based on the determined contact information.
