Abstract :
We are developing a type of robotics technology called a "network robot system." Such a system can provide robot-based services that are not realized by a single robot but a combination of robots, ubiquitous sensors, PCs, and cellular phones. Using various types of robot technology in a network helps to improve people\´s understanding of their situation and environment. In this paper, we introduce a network robot system and discuss some examples of the system in which robots directly interact with their users
