A new concept for constructing an intelligent mobile system is proposed. We describe reasons for the necessity of a new architecture for mobile systems in intelligent spaces. The intelligent spaces are room or area that are equipped with sensors, network and computers. The intelligent spaces are expected to be authentic future environment. If environment gets intelligence, it is not a distinct part of an intelligent mobile system any more and also the mobile system becomes a physical agent of the intelligent space. In this paper, we do some experiments to show what are possible for a mobile robot in an intelligent space.
