Abstract: An agent device for assisting one or more users is provided. The agent device supports a first operation mode in which the agent device is configured to identify individual users. Further, the agent device supports a second operation mode in which the agent device is configured to not identify individual users. The agent device includes a receiver circuit configured to receive, from an external device, a signal indicating that a person in the vicinity of the agent device does not want to be identified. Additionally, the agent device includes a control circuit configured to set an operation mode of the agent device to the second operation mode in response to receiving the signal.

Abstract: A method of providing information about a device is proposed. According to the method, user-specific information of a first user is provided to the device. The user-specific information is related to a user experience of the device used by the first user. The user-specific information is stored in a non-volatile memory of the device. Upon a request of a second user, device-specific information based on the stored user-specific feedback information from the non-volatile memory of the device is outputted to the second user. A device with an electrical circuit, non-volatile memory, and an output circuit is proposed.
