Abstract

The invention relates to a docking station for a mobile robot, comprising: a robot parking zone; sources (21, 22, 23) emitting attracting rays, disposed around the parking zone so as to emit attracting rays (R1, R2, R3) in a robot approach region; and sources (24, 25) emitting repelling rays, disposed on each side of the parking zone so as to emit repelling rays (R4, R5) outside the approach region, said repelling rays having a shorter range than the attracting rays.
