Abstract
In Japan, the population of person requiring support is increasing. Exercise is important for care prevention. So, local government has carried out gymnastics for care prevention. However its participation rate is low. Therefore, improvement of the motivation to exercise is needed for elderly people. So, we develop input device which operation will be exercise for the preventive care and combine it with tele-robot. We expect tele-robotics contributes to daily life and hobby of the elderly, and then the elderly would improve the motivation to exercise. In this paper, we discuss the problem of previously developed hand ergometer type input device and improvement of the device
