Evacuation assistance using a robot is studied. Human subjects experiments of indoor evacuation under robot guidance were conducted and the result showed effectiveness of a robot guidance in the evacuation. Based on the experiment result an agent model for evacuation simulation was conducted. The agent model considers probability distributions of the walking speed and the route decision time of evacuees. Using the constructed agent model, evacuation simulation was carried out for a building with complex hallways. It is demonstrated that effective position of a robot for guidance can be sought through the agent simulation.
