Abstract :
Several remote control systems of AIBO have been developed for the purpose of bringing out the subject´s positiveness. Preliminary trials showed it is promising for the robot assisted rehabilitation. In this paper, we report on two systems from the view point of operation. One is that operated by a co-medical and the other is by subject oneself.
