We are developing and researching on Ubiquitous Display (UD) that is a mobile robot composed of mobile platform and a projector with pan-tilt mechanism. UD provides visual information for people by projecting images in their sight. To achieve this purpose, human's position and direction are important information for UD. In this paper, we propose a method of estimating position and direction of human by using only a single Laser Range Finder (LRF). Furthermore, we verified usefulness of the estimation method for UD's projection through experiments.
