Abstract(in English) This paper describes development of visual tele-existence system. The system consists of an omni-directional vehicle on which omni-directional image camera is equipped and a spherical immersive projection display. The camera is obtained omni directional image by the use of a convex mirror that reflects surroundings. The camera is mounted on an omni-directional wireless controlled vehicle so that a user can move the camera anywhere. A spherical immersive projection display, named "SpinDome", projects the omni-directional images captured from the camera on the screen. Camera position control abilities of users were evaluated through experiments that varied time delay in communication between the camera and display system, and display methods by comparing with the SpinDome and a typical flat display.
