We are developing telepresence robots that play outside with children in remote areas. Therefore, we propose a robot that reproduces the face of the operator. Since the visibility of the liquid crystal display is low outside, we use the face of the robot imitating a person. However, if the face of the operator is always presented, it will be exposed to the public, which is a problem. The purpose of this research is to develop a robot which presence the operator’s face only when necessary.
