Design and Construction of Bluetooth Based Caller System in Elevators
Abstract
Buildings comprising of several floors requires a lot of energy to climb the staircases. The quest to solve the problem in the use of staircase led to the exploitation of the use of elevators. This elevator has so many risks involved in it use; hence, there is need to develop a system that can take care of the emergency in case of faults occurring at different floors of the building regarding the use of the elevators. Also, there is need to demonstrate the used of Bluetooth technology in in the form of Bluetooth Base caller system. This paper shows that with modern technology, emergencies occurring at the elevators can be drastically reduced to the barest minimum. The system is based on the embedded system and can act as a security guard of the buildings with several floors. When buildings consist of several floors, climbing it requires a lot of energy, hence the use of an elevator is an added advantage. Due to the risk involved in the use of elevator, there is need to communicate with the people on the elevator, this design provides access to the control room in the case of an emergency for people in the elevator. The elevator is normally operated by using switches via a Bluetooth. The main purpose of this paper is to design a Bluetooth Based Caller System in the elevator, which involves android phone technology (Bluetooth) and microcontroller technology.
