Today, many of serious illness nerve incurable disease patients choose recuperation at home positively as selection of the place of long-term medical treatment. Nerve incurable disease patients are difficult to take broad communication, because they lose exercise functions of mainly voice, hand and feet. Therefore, it is necessary to establish the network for supporting a patient. To realize establishment of the network, and use it smoothly, we did design and trial manufacture of I-PET and basic communication experiment with Nishitaga National hospital in Sendai. According to the experiment, we confirmed that Small I-PET is useful to the experiment for realizing better communication space.

Key words: Tele-existence,Device independent,face-to-face communication
