Abstract :
This paper proposes a stuffed-toy device as an outlet target of a user´s mental burden. When the user touches/hugs the stuffed toy, the script of the stuffed toy is post on an SNS, such as Twitter. We aim for an indirect and unforced communication among other participants in SNS through the scripts of a stuffed-toy device that shows sympathetic understanding during user´s mood recognition.
