    Abstract: A method and a system for secure and convenient delivery of item is disclosed. The method comprises loading a mobile robot with an item to be delivered. An item ID is generated, based on the ID of the item a security score is associated with the item. Further, a convenience score is associated with the item based on the ID. The present invention further discloses associating at least one or a plurality of authenticating techniques with the item, preferably based on the security score and/or the convenience score. The mobile robot is further configured to sense a user terminal via an authenticating sensor and facilitate the user to access an item space once the user is verified by the associated authenticating technique/s.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to a road crossing method for a mobile robot. The road crossing method comprises the mobile robot approaching a road crossing. Further, the road crossing method comprises estimating, with a data processing unit, a location and time of collision with at least one dynamic object on the road crossing. Further still, the road crossing method comprises generating, with the data processing unit, control commands for the mobile robot to avoid collision with the at least one dynamic object based on the estimated location and time of collision with the at least one dynamic object. In addition, the present invention relates to a mobile robot comprising the data processing unit and configured to carry out the road crossing method. In a further aspect, the present invention relates to a positioning method for a wheeled mobile robot positioned on a sloped terrain, comprising the mobile robot performing at least one maneuver for minimizing a magnitude of an acceleration vector of the mobile robot due to the gravity force acting on the mobile robot. In addition, the present invention relates to a mobile robot configured to carry out the positioning method.

    Abstract: A method of or for routing delivery items to delivery locations using transport devices includes localizing the plurality of delivery items, determining the delivery locations for the plurality of delivery items and executing a genetic algorithm for outputting a routing plan. The genetic algorithm can be an adapted genetic routing algorithm. The routing system can comprise a computing system that can be configured to execute at least one genetic algorithm for at least one of: assigning the transport devices to the delivery items, assigning the transport devices to times of delivery, and routing the transport devices to the delivery locations. The controlling system can be configured to control the transport devices according to the output of the computing system.
