| Abstract | (in Japanese) | (See Japanese page) |
| (in English) | In this paper, we present distributed portable robots for remote-interaction support and information provision mainly in office environments which we call "Ubi-kikki". The prototype system that we developed is capable of simple-figure drawing onto walls, floors, etc. with a laser scanner, video capturing, sound-source location identification with a microphone array, speech synthesis, ID verification and the localization with active RFIDs, and network communication. Ubi-kikki also has good features that it is highly portable and that it can be easily placed in various ways instead of no capability of autonomous mobility. We also give an outline of office-activity-support services that Ubi-kikki can realize autonomously or in remote operation by combining the distinctive functionalities and features. | |
