Abstract: Disclosed are a device, system and method for assisting mobile robots. A service robot is disclosed comprising a body; a motion component fitted to the body and configured to propel the service robot in a direction; an engagement component configured to exert a localized force on a geometrically defined interaction area; a sensor configured to detect the interaction area; and a communication component configured to at least communicate with mobile robots and to at least receive requests to engage the interaction area. A system comprising a mobile robot and a service robot is also disclosed. A method comprising a mobile robot approaching a pedestrian road crossing at a first location; the mobile robot requesting assistance from a service robot; the service robot executing at least one assistive action; and in response to the assistive action, the mobile robot crossing the road via the pedestrian road crossing is also disclosed.

Abstract: The current invention relates to a traffic detection device, including a sensor configured to detect an object of interest within its field of view, an energy supply unit, a communication unit, and a housing configured to encase all other components. Further, the present invention also relates to a system and method for assisting mobile robots. The system comprises at least one mobile robot configured to navigate in an unstructured outdoor environment as a traffic participant and at least one traffic detection system, wherein the traffic detection device is configured to assist the mobile robot by providing additional sensor data. The method includes a mobile robot approaching a road crossing, requesting assistance for the mobile robot, a traffic detection device providing at least one assistive function, and in response to the assistive function, the mobile robot crossing the road.
