    摘要: The present invention relates to a method for delivering a plurality of items to a plurality of delivery locations. The method comprises a transport set comprising at least one mobile transport apparatus comprising a first mobile transport apparatus, the first mobile transport apparatus transporting a plurality of robots. The method also comprises the first mobile transport apparatus travelling to a first robot drop location. The method further comprises a first robot set, which first robot set comprises at least one robot being released from the first mobile transport apparatus at the first robot drop location. The method also comprises each of the at least one robot of the first robot set travelling from the first robot drop location to a delivery location. The method also comprises each of the at least one robot of the first robot set delivering an item of a first item set at the respective delivery location. The method further comprises each of the at least one robot of the first robot set travelling to a robot pick up location. The method further comprises each of the at least one robot of the first robot set being collected into a mobile transport apparatus at the respective robot pick up location.
    The present invention also relates to a system for delivering a plurality of items to a plurality of delivery locations is disclosed. The system comprises a plurality of robots, each adapted to deliver an item at a respective delivery location. The system also comprises a transport set comprising at least one mobile transport apparatus adapted to transport the plurality of robots.
