Robotic work tool system and method for defining a stay-out area within a work area

A robotic work tool system (200) for defining a stay-out area (120) within a work area (150). The stay-out area (120) is an area which is to be excluded from the work area (150) in which a robotic work tool (100) is subsequently intended to operate. The robotic work tool system (200) comprises a bou...

Summary:A robotic work tool system (200) for defining a stay-out area (120) within a work area (150). The stay-out area (120) is an area which is to be excluded from the work area (150) in which a robotic work tool (100) is subsequently intended to operate. The robotic work tool system (200) comprises a boundary definition unit (130) comprising at least one position unit (175) configured to receive position data. The robotic work tool system (200) further comprises at least one controller (110,210) configured to receive a stay-out area definition trigger signal. The at least one controller (110,210) is further configured to receive, based on the received stay-out area definition trigger signal, position data from the at least one position unit (175). The position data indicates the present position of the boundary definition unit (130). The at least one controller (110,210) is further configured to define the stay-out area (120) as an area centered at an offset from the received position data.
