            Abstract : 
This paper describes augmented robot hand to represent what the robot will handle. Many researches on preliminary announcement aim to show “what the robot´s next action is”. However, it is not easy to design how to divide the robot action especially when we consider the complicated robots like humanoids because they have many possible behaviors. We, therefore, aim to show “what the robot will handle” instead of “what the robot´s next action is” and to develop augmented robot hand. The experiments show that our system has a potential to provide the object information.
