Automatically controlled door assembly as an elevator level door of an elevator system

An automatically controlled door arrangement providing access to an elevator shaft of an elevator installation, the door arrangement comprising:

• a door leaf actively moveable between an open position and a closed position independent of an elevator car of the elevator installation;
• a drive disposed within the door arrangement adapted to move the door leaf between the open position and the closed position;
• a door arrangement controller configured to control the drive of the door arrangement;
• a sensor system detecting people and/or objects in front of the door leaf, wherein the sensor system interacts with the people and/or objects detected in front of the door leaf, the sensor system being integrated into the door leaf, and wherein the sensor system includes a touch-sensitive panel that exchanges signals with the door arrangement controller and displays information received from the door arrangement controller;
• a data connection for data exchange between the door arrangement controller and an external computer;
• and
• wherein the door arrangement receives and processes signals from the sensor system in the door arrangement controller, sends query data to the external computer via the data connection based upon the processed signals, receives instruction data provided by the external computer in response to the query data, and controls the drive to operate the door leaf in response to the instruction data.

An automatically controlled door arrangement used as a floor door of an elevator installation, the door arrangement comprising:

• a door leaf actively moveable between an open position and a closed position independent of an elevator car of the elevator installation;
• a drive disposed within the door arrangement adapted to move the door leaf between the open position and the closed position;
• a door arrangement controller configured to control the drive of the door arrangement;
• a sensor system detecting people and/or objects in front of the door leaf, the sensor system being integrated into the door leaf;
• the sensor system including a touch-sensitive panel that exchanges signals with the door arrangement controller and displays information received from the door arrangement controller;
• the sensor system including a camera for detecting the people and/or objects in front of the door leaf, wherein the door arrangement controller processes signals from the camera to recognize one or more gestures of a person detected in front of the door leaf, wherein the one or more gestures correspond to a particular elevator command;
• a data connection for data exchange between the door arrangement controller and an external computer;
• and
• wherein the door arrangement receives and processes signals from the sensor system in the door arrangement controller, sends query data to the external computer via the data connection based upon the processed signals, receives instruction data provided by the external computer in response to the query data, and controls the drive to operate the door leaf in response to the instruction data.
