Abstract
A system comprising at least one autonomous mobile robot (service robot) and at least one mobile terminal for controlling the robot. According to one embodiment of the disclosure, the robot and the mobile terminal are designed to communicate via at least a first wireless connection. The robot is designed to detect information regarding the location of a user (e.g. on the basis of the location of the terminal) and to decide as a function of the detected information regarding the location whether and, if yes, which information is sent to the mobile terminal and/or whether and, if yes, which actions are carried out, interrupted, continued or terminated by the robot.
