According to an aspect, there are provided a mobile device for wireless people flow management. The mobile device comprises at least one processor; at least one memory; and a near field communication, NFC, reader; wherein the at least one memory comprises program code which, when executed on the at least one processor causes the mobile device to receive, from the NFC reader, information encoded in an NFC tag associated with a specific location in a building; determine control information to trigger at least one state change associated with the location based on the information encoded to the NFC tag; and send the control information to a control system of the building.

Mobile device with processor for communication with NFC reader

A method for controlling a generation of at least one access code includes receiving, in an access control device, data representing an access code; verifying the data representing the access code; in response to a detection in a verification that the access code is valid generating a signal causing a generation of data representing a new access code; and generating a signal causing a transmit of the data representing the new access code to a party from whom the data representing the access code is received. An access control device, a computer program product and a system are also disclosed.

Access right management

A method and a system for generating destination calls for an elevator system is described, wherein a passenger can give personal destination calls with his/her terminal device as well as on the basis of identification of the person in at least one identification point. A passenger is identified at an identification point, on the basis of which the home floor of the passenger is determined and a destination call to the home floor is generated for the elevator system if the passenger does not have a valid destination call at the time of identification.

Generating destination calls for an elevator system

The invention allows personalization of an elevator service in an elevator system with destination control. Sensor data provided by a three-dimensional motion sensor and related to a passenger tracked by the three-dimensional motion sensor is received at a service unit of the elevator system with destination control. A personalized elevator service functionality for the tracked passenger is determined with the service unit based at least on the received sensor data. The personalized elevator service functionality is triggered with the service unit.
