The Wobot composed of a tablet and docking station, with voice dialogue, Internet of Things control function. This paper is focusing on a new interactive system for the companion robot developed by using the telepresence technology. The elderly call a video phone by voice control, and the remote user can manipulate robot action when making video call. It can create more diverse interpersonal communication experience for the elderly and build a stronger relationship with the children.
