Equivalent Physical Constant Hypothesis for Skill Transmission in Scale Conversion Telexistence

Abstract

Scale conversion telexistence can have an inconsistency in the motions of a human and robot of different scales. We assumed that the inconsistency is caused by the different apparent physical constants for the human and robot. We propose an equivalent physical constant hypothesis for motion skill transmission, which we verified experimentally by transmitting the standing-up movement of a human to a small robot. The robot successfully managed to stand up by compensating for the gravity. This proves the validity of the hypothesis.
