Abstract
Making sure the elevators in the building provide a pleasant experience requires
regular elevator maintenance, service and support by professionals. Implementation of
the proper algorithm in the elevator control system are vital to make sure system to run
smoothly. The main purpose of this project is to propose an algorithm to control the
movement of the elevator using Raspberry Pi. Instead of using programmable logic
controller, a Raspberry Pi was chosen to act as the master controller to perform the logic
algorithm that control the movement of the elevator. This choice enabled easier end-user
human-machine-interface, convenient data log accessibility, and a wide variety of future
expansion opportunities. Raspberry Pi GPIO's have been used for emulating push button
behaviour. The system works by receiving the signal from the input button and then
control the motor rotation to move the cabin to the desired destination.
