Abstract
This paper describes a game called the "robot hopscotch game" which uses mobile robots. In this game, a mobile robot moves on a board which consists of a number of square cells. This is similar to the usual hopscotch game in which a human player hops through a course on the ground. In the robot hopscotch game, each cell has a visual light communication unit. The unit sends identification signal and the robot which moves over the cell receives the signal for location recognition. In the game, a human player or a human operator competes with a robot or other human player on how accurately and fast they move to a goal location passing through the given way point cells. People played the game at the RoboWorld 2008 which was held at COEX Seoul, on 16th to 20th of October 2008. The replies to the questionnaire to the users show that users have interests on the game and expect further expansion of robot use though they are not in favor of the robot's outlook and they feel inconvenience on manipulation of the robot.
