Abstract
We develop a robot magician capable of taking out the first or second card from the top of a bundle of cards. We can switch first-card-dealing and second-card-dealing freely by introducing a key time chart that can not be followed by human, which allows the robot to achieve card magic. The robot can deal the cards with the speed of six cards/sec, which is even faster than human magician. Through the observation of the human magician, we extract the fundamental functions and implement them into the robot. Eventually, the developed robot has four fingers. In order to achieve a quick manipulation, we reduce active degrees of freedom as many as possible. Finally, we can examine the card magic by using the developed robot beyond the limit of human vision.
