Recently, the concept of behavioral media using a mobile robot has emerged in tele-robotics, where the mobile robot behaves as a user's second body or an agent in a remote site. An important issue in behavioral media is how to control the robot intuitively immersing a user into a remote site. This paper describes a new approach which combines locomotion interface and immersive projection display of a remote site for controlling a networked mobile robot. We have developed a prototype system and have evaluated the usability of the system with experiments.
