Abstract :
There is a robot that understands a partner´s feeling and it is called Ifbot. Ifbot is a sensibility technology communication robot that has emotion, can recognize conversation, go by affection of conversation partner, and speak with sentiment. Ifbot express one´s feelings with eyelid, eye and face, besides learning habit and personality of conversation partner, it responds depending on them. Moreover, we studied the system, which checks mental health in a network. Mental health is very important to make it safe and secure. The affection of stress for mental aspect is heavy and large problem in contemporary society. Stress influences our health, and may give rise to some diseases. Mental disorders are performed early treatment. So we think to need the mental health diagnosis system that is easily available and to mount that system to Ifbot. That engages general conversation with partner, and asks a question with precise timing. The main purpose of this system is the construction of a system, which manages daily health through the conversation, which is a very important communication means in people. We believe like this system is available in an aged society, because elderly people can´t receive diagnosis from a doctor always and can´t respond abrupt symptom change.
