It is known that human affects and emotions are reflected in own eyes. Especially, the eyes with strong affects and emotions such as interest or motivation look like twinkling. People are fascinated and attracted by these twinkling eyes. Therefore, it is expected to examine the elements that fascinate humans and develop social robots for attracting humans by recreating these twinkling eyes using engineering technology. We focused on the reflection of the eyeball surface and developed a twinkling eyes interface by superimposing self-shadow on dilated pupils. This interface can express the pupil response and the shade of self-shadow depending on the distance. In this study, an evaluation experiment that combines self-shadow with dilated pupil was conducted. The effectiveness of the developed interface was demonstrated by sensory evaluations.
