Reporters obtained the following quote from the background information supplied by the inventors: "The use of mobile robots in various areas of daily life is increasing rapidly. Autonomous or partially autonomous robots are navigating both indoors and outdoors. The encounter with other actors results in a range of reactions which may lead to obstruction and/or damage of the mobile robot and may delay the completion of the mobile robot's task or completely prevent the successful execution. "In order to increase the efficiency of the mobile robot and minimize waiting times for customers and/or users, the robot may need to interact with other actors (such as traffic participants) explicitly and implicitly. These actors can comprise vehicles, bicycles, pedestrians, animals and the like.
