在社会基础设施技术中，机器人技术（RT）有望在解决21世纪出生率下降和老年人增加的问题上发挥重要作用，特别是（但不仅是）在人口平均年龄增长速度比世界上任何其他国家都快的日本。为了实现这一目标，新一代的个人机器人应该能够通过表达人类的情感与人类进行自然的交流。从这个意义上说，人类的手在探索、交流和与物体和其他人的互动中发挥着重要作用。本文介绍了日本东京早稻田大学Takanishi实验室、意大利比萨圣安娜高等学校艺术实验室和日本东京ROBOCASA合作的最新成果。首先介绍了ROBODEX2003期间，ARTS实验室的人工手RTR-2与仿人机器人平台WE-4R的集成。然后，本文展示了用于类人机器人的新型拟人化手RCH-I （ROBOCASA hand No.1）的开发初步成果，并将其集成到名为WE-4RII （Waseda Eye No.4 Refined II）的新型类人机器人平台上。
Among social infrastructure technologies, robot technology (RT) is expected to play an important role in solving the problems of both decrease of birth rate and increase of elderly people in the 21st century, specially (but not only) in Japan where the average age of the population is rising faster than any other nation in the world. In order to achieve this objective, the new generation of personal robots should be capable of a natural communication with humans by expressing human-like emotion. In this sense, human hands play a fundamental role in exploration, communication and interaction with objects and other persons. This paper presents the recent results of the collaboration between the Takanishi Lab of Waseda University, Tokyo, Japan, the Arts Lab of Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, Pisa, Italy, and ROBOCASA, Tokyo, Japan. At first, the integration of the artificial hand RTR-2 of ARTS lab with the humanoid robotic platform WE-4R during ROBODEX2003 is presented. Then, the paper show the preliminary results of the development of a novel anthropomorphic hand for humanoid robotics RCH-I (ROBOCASA Hand No.1) and its integration into a new humanoid robotic platform, named WE-4RII (Waseda Eye No.4 Refined II).
