Abstract
A robot obtains image data representative of an environment comprising a first region and a second region. A microphone receives sound from the environment. The robot determines, using the image data and audio data derived based on the received sound, whether the sound is received from the first region, and outputs a control signal for controlling the robot based on the audio data. Sounds received from the first region are processed as voice commands on the basis that one of the first region and the second region comprises a predetermined type of inanimate object. Sounds received from the second region are processed in a different manner.
