In our previous work, a wearable robot named telecommunicator has been developed. The telecommunicator can achieve rich communications with a remote person through a small robot. Until now, we developed several prototypes of the wearable telecommunicator T1, T2, T3 and MH-1. MH-1 has human like shape and ability to reproduce the movements of human's arm and head. Currently, we are developing MH-2 that expresses a presence of the operator by 20-DOF motions. In this paper, a 7-DOF arm of MH-2 with the parallel wire mechanism is developed for MH-2. The effectiveness of the mechanism is verified by the prototype model.
