wherein the authorization system comprises at least one control device configured to interact with said interaction device and representative of at least one command function, the at least one command function being performed as a function of the room-status condition.
2 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said signaling device comprises at least one light reproduction device configured to operate intermittently and/or emit different colors as a function of said room-status condition, said light reproduction device being an LED (Light-Emitting Diode) light or an OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) light.
3 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said signaling device comprises a sound reproduction device configured to emit an intermittent sound and/or a voice message.
4 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said room-status condition is representative of a presence or absence of a guest inside said room.
5 . The control system according to claim 4 , wherein said detection system comprises means for detecting the presence of said guest inside said room.
6 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said room-status condition is representative of a request not to disturb a guest.
7 . The control system according to claim 6 , wherein said detection system further comprises a control unit, inside said room, configured to set said status condition to said request not to disturb or to an access permission for a requested service.
8 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said room-status condition is representative of an access permission for a requested service.
9 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said control device is representative of a command function configured to know said room-status condition.
10 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said control device is representative of a command function configured to perform an opening of said automatic lock, said authorization system sending an opening signal to said automatic lock as a function of said room-status condition.
11 . The control system according to claim 1 wherein said authorization system comprises said automatic lock provided with said signaling device configured both to signal an approach of the interaction device, and to emit said sound and/or visual signal representative of said received room-status condition of the room.
12 . The control system according to claim 1 , further comprising an alert device arranged inside said room and configured to draw an attention of a guest and wherein said control device is representative of a command function configured to activate said alert device, said alert device is made in a form of a bell, a visual reproduction device or a vibrating element.
13 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said control device is made in a form of a token, said authorization system comprising a token for each command function.
14 . The control system according to claim 13 , wherein said control device comprises an NFC (Near Field Communication) or RFID (Radio-Frequency Identification) circuit and wherein said interaction device comprises an NFC or RFID antenna or reading surface.
15 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein said control device is defined by a software installed or installable in a user interface device.
16 . The control system according to claim 1 wherein the interaction device comprises a button configured to interact with services within the room as a function of said room-status condition.
17 . The control system according to claim 16 wherein said button is configured to interact
with a bell; and/or
with a voice and/or video intercom device arranged inside the room as a function of said room-status condition; and/or
with another communication device arranged outside the room.
18 . The control system according to claim 1 wherein the interaction device comprises a screen on which, said authorization system is configured to display a code detectable by means of a control device; said control system being configured to detect said code and to receive from said authorization system a signal confirming whether or not to interact with services within the room.
19 . The control system according to claim 1 wherein the interaction device comprises a Bluetooth transmitter configured to interact with said control device so as to confirm a presence of a user holding said control device outside the room.
20 . The control system according to claim 19 , wherein the Bluetooth transmitter is configured to receive said control device within a predefined time range following which the authorization system does not receive any control device.
21 . The control system according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit comprises a camera configured to frame the user requesting an access to and/or information on the room; said camera being connected to the interaction device and being configured to generate a vision signal which is forwarded to a vision/communication device to be able to view the user and/or interact therewith in a video communication.
