Abstract
This paper considers briefly the functions of an artificial liferobot for human welfare and the design method of the artificial liferobot. The author refers to an intelligent robot with an artificial brain, as an artificial liferobot. The prior artificial brain consisted of a Von-Neumann type microcomputer, a RICOH neurocomputer RN2000, and the interface operating these two computers. The author has already designed a prototype artificial liferobot for supporting the daily life of elderly person. However this artificial liferobot does not have neurocomputer hardware, so hardware must be replaced by artificial neural network software, in the artificial brain of this artificial liferobot. This paper considers a method to construct the artificial brain for communication between the artificial liferobot and human being in the fields of human welfare. In this method, interacting with human being develops the software for the ability of both fundamental communication and behavioral control of the artificial liferobot
