A trial of remote embrace system which gives ease

In remote counseling systems using TV-phones, it can’t use spacing and physical contact, which are one of the most effective methods of counseling. Then, we propose that we had better to use HyperMirror for remote counseling, that a client and a counselor talk together while seeing the same image in which they are together. On the screen, they can approach and hug each other. Therefore, we propose the new trial of remote embrace system that the client’s images overlap the counselor’s images while giving vibration to the client. We respect it will give a client a similar effect to real physical contact. On the trial system, the client wears the jacket with vibrators. S/he gets vibration at the same times with the images of a hug on the screen. Gradually, s/he will be able to imagine a physical hug from only the vibration. For the practical use of the remote embrace system which gives ease, we will research and examine layout and the way of hug on the screen, small articles, etc. that make the clients relax best in mind and body.
