Abstract :
Acting in everyday-life environments is still a great challenge in service robotics. Although algorithms and solutions already exist for many relevant subproblems, in particular the aspect of robustness and suitability for everyday use has been neglected so far very often. Robustness and suitability for everyday use are features affecting not only the overall system design but have impact on each single algorithm of each component.
