Abstract
The author is developping the I/O device that enable to communicate with gesture on network. Input device is like a puppet, and output device is a human type robot. I found out that effective and important joints in gestural communication are "Body : Stretching and Drawing", Body : Rotating (with vertical axis)", "Body : Waving front and back" "Hand Wavin front and back", "Hnad : Wavin hand right and left". From this result, I made a prototype of a robot which has these degree of freedom (except for "Body Rotating"). It was connected with Macintosh through the MiniBoard, and It is possible to controll this robot. Future, I am planning to perform next experiment with this robot, as for a machine communicating with user by phisical gesuture,
