USER DETECTION SYSTEM OF ELEVATOR

To prevent erroneous detection of a shadow inside a car and correctly detect a user existing in the vicinity of a door.SOLUTION: A user detection system of an elevator includes: detection area setting means for setting a first detection area for trapping detection in the vicinity of a door inside a car and a second detection area for riding detection facing a landing from the door on a photographed image obtained from a camera installed in the car; detection processing means for detecting a user existing in the first detection area or the second detection area based on the photographed image; and adjustment means for changing a target luminance value with respect to the photographed image between the case where the door is fully closed and the case where the door is fully opened and performing adjustment by making the target luminance value lower in the case where the door is fully closed than in the case where the door is fully opened so as to darkly photograph the inside of the car.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】乗りかご内における影の誤検知を防いで、ドア付近にいる利用者を正しく検知する。【解決手段】一実施形態に係るエレベータの利用者検知システムは、乗りかご内に設置されたカメラから得られる撮影画像上で、上記乗りかご内のドア付近に引き込まれ検知用の第１の検知エリアと、上記ドアから乗場に向けて乗車検知用の第２の検知エリアを設定する検知エリア設定手段と、上記撮影画像に基づいて上記第１の検知エリアまたは上記第２の検知エリアに存在する利用者を検知する検知処理手段と、上記ドアの全閉時と全開時とで上記撮影画像に対する目標輝度値を変更し、全閉時は上記目標輝度値を全開時よりも下げて、上記乗りかご内を暗く撮影するように調整する調整手段とを具備する。【選択図】 図１
