Abstract
A method for operating an autonomous mobile green space processing robot, wherein the green space processing robot includes a drive system for propulsion of the green space processing robot. The method includes: a) monitoring whether a sticking presumption criterion is met, wherein the sticking presumption criterion is characteristic of suspected sticking of the green space processing robot; b) if the sticking presumption criterion is met, operating the drive system for a movement change of the green space processing robot and monitoring whether a sticking confirmation criterion is met, wherein the sticking confirmation criterion is that the movement change does not occur; and c) if the sticking confirmation criterion is met, initiating a sticking countermeasure of the green space processing robot.
