Abstract :
In the near future, it will be necessary for the senior citizens to nurse the other senior citizens because of declining population of children and increasing a new type of family. We have been developing welfare robots which can support lives of the senior citizens and have sensibility to lighten the burden imposed on nursing. The measurement of emotions from the usual conversation is considered to be one of its basic researches. In this paper, we are going to propose the algorithm of the emotion measurement and the prototype system based on this algorithm, and we are also going to discuss its validity.
