The robot that can achieve card magic

摘要

We succeeded in developing a robot that can play a card magic for the first time in the world. The robot can complete a magic by quickly switching the first-card-dealing and the-second-card-dealing. This paper is composed of three parts where one is the design of the robot by referring human motion, the second is the mechanics of the card manipulation by utilizing a simplified model, and a magic actually done by the robot. We would note that as far as the card dealing is concerned, the developed robot is even faster than human magician.
