Recently, medical training for practical skill improvement of medical students has been in demand. However, it has become difficult for medical students to experience sufficient medical training. To address the problem a patient robot that operates in a similar manner to an actual patient was developed. This study focuses on the eye of the patient robot. By obtaining the viewpoint of a patient, it is possible to evaluate the training from a patient point of view. An eye mechanism producing the same range of motion as the human eye was produced in this study.
