摘要: Robot therapy for elderly residents in a care house has been conducted since June 2005. Two therapeutic seal robots were introduced and activated over 9 hours every day to interact with the residents. This paper presents results of this experiment. In order investigate psychological social effects robots, activities public areas recorded by video cameras during daytime (8:30-18:00) 2 months. addition, hormones 17 - Ketosteroid sulfate (17-KS-S) 17-hydroxycorticosteroids (17-OHCS) residents' urine obtained analyzed. The urinary tests showed that reactions subjects' vital organs stress improved after introduction robots. Furthermore, case studies indicate interaction increased through
