This paper addresses the issue of personal service robots not being widely used. Our approach is to offer a new interface paradigm to develop pervasive robotic applications. Cleaning robots are the most famous of personal service robots. However, people do not know the possibilities of what the robot can do. First, we analyze what task components are important for a cleaning robot. Next, we evaluate the efficiency of cleaning robots using the experience method. Third, we search for issues with cleaning robots, based on evaluations. We build the optimal experience of a practical cleaning robot. Finally, we propose a novel intelligent user interface based on optimal experiences and evaluate its performance.

Information regarding the environment surrounding remote mobile robots, such as images, sensors, and sounds, is necessary for the effective control of these robots.However, it is difficult to control the remote mobile robot safely because of the delay in receiving the image information and inaccuracies in the sensor information.We aim to reduce the problems occurring during the control of the remote mobile robot and propose a safe method for navigating the robot to the target point.We require a map that shows the surrounding environment, location presumption of the robot, and an obstacle perception technique. We draw the environment map using an infrared ray sensor. It is difficult to discriminate distance information using one-dimensional image information.However, we propose to solve this problem using a virtual stick that represents different distances with different colors.The aim of our study is to improve the perception of the position and distance of the obstacle using the virtual stick and the safe navigation of the remote mobile robot avoiding collision with obstacles.

Human-Robot Interaction technology, used to command a robot or to acquire information from a robot, is defined as the communication method between humans and the robot. Human-robot interaction consists of the input facility, environment display, intuitive command and reaction, and the architecture of the interface program. This research focuses on the framework of the interface program that contains the controls, communication architecture and robot
