Abstract
With a physical form similar to that of a human, humanoid robots can be used as proxies or assistants to perform tasks in a real-world environment on behalf of humans. Various humanoid robots have been developed worldwide [4, 5, 6, 8, 12], and currenly, humanoid robots are able to work in our daily life environment. Ogura et al. constructed a humanoid robot, WABIAN-2, to use for quantitatively testing rehabilitation or welfare equipments [10], and Okada et al. used humanoid robots for housekeeping chores such as washing dishes and cooking [11]. Honda’s ASIMO robot performs tasks of a receptionist or information guide tasks automatically in concert with people and carries objects using a cart [1].
