Abstract(in English) This article proposes a new approach to virtual realization of force/tectile senses in machines possessing no such sensors. The key of our approach is that a robot exploits the user's biological signals, and therefore this approach is not dependent on the controlled object and is expected to be widely applied for a variety of machines including robots. This article describes and example robotic system comprised of an industrial robot manipulator, a motion capture system, and a surface EMG measurement apparatus. By making use of the surface EMG and postural information of a user's hand in real-time, we show that the robot that has no force/tactile sensors can behave similarly to the one possessing senses over its body. The advantage of our approach is highlighted by a task in which the robot and a user cooperatively hold and move a heavy load.
