Zusammenfassung:A device for assisting a user in a household includes a base for placing the device onto a standing surface. A first interaction unit includes an optical sensor capturing image data of a sensed region of an environment of the device. The first unit is movable relative to the base to change the sensed region. A second interaction unit includes a projector projecting an image onto a projection surface in the environment of the device. The second unit is movable separately from the first unit to change the projection surface. A control unit determines a position of a user of the device in the environment of the device and triggers the movement of the first and second units in accordance with the position of the user. The control unit determines an input of the user and causes the projector to project an image onto the projection surface in response thereto.
