REMOTE INTERACTION DEVICE AND METHOD

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique to reduce or eliminate strange feeling caused by delay in a remote interaction.SOLUTION: The remote interaction device comprises: a first display portion 104 that when a first person alters his behaviour displays a first behaviour of a behaviour of the first person who has altered his behaviour at the time delayed by a predetermined delay time from the time when the first person has altered his behaviour; and a second display portion 204, arranged at a second point, that displays the first behaviour of the first person at the time delayed by the first delay time from the time when the first person has altered his behaviour. When a second person positioned at the second point alters his behaviour in reaction to the first behaviour of the first person displayed on the second display portion 204, assuming that a second behaviour of a behaviour of the second person who has altered his behaviour is further displayed on the first display portion 104 at the time delayed by second delay time from the time when the second person has altered his behaviour, the predetermined delay time is time calculated by adding the first delay time to the second delay time.
