Abstract(in English) This paper proposes a social media mediation robot for increasing conversation opportunity of elderly. The some kinds of social media have been used by many users who can use digital device, such as PC or a smart phone. Though the opportunities of communication of these users are increasing, social isolation of elderly by digital divide is aggravated. In order to overcome this problem, we develop the social media mediation system by using a robot as interface to social media. We show the usefulness of our system through a pilot study to increase an opportunity for conversation.
