Abstract
We have proposed Robot Assisted Rehabilitation (RAR) in which stimulative impression of robots produces effective rehabilitation. In RAR, mental and social effects are expected in addition to physical effect. With these three effects in mind we have done RAR in the nursing home for the aged and the rehabilitation ward. In this paper, we report trial practices using commercially available entertainment robots in remote operation mode.
