Abstract

This paper overviews a robotics project at the Expo 2005. The project consists of long term experimental evaluation of practical robots at the Expo site simulating the society in the future and short term demonstration of prototype robots. The long term evaluation can let robots advance from the demonstration level to the practical use one, and the short term demonstration from the single shot experiment level to the demonstration one.
