In order to support co-creative communication, emergence of a co-exciting feeling during all participants is important. In this research, we have developed an interface to express the correlation between each operational rhythm for robot controlling by the rhythm controller (coherence of bodily action), and have build this interface into the conventional Kendo robot system. We had remote kendo matches using this interface and timing display device to transmit the opponent operational rhythm. From the result, we found that transmission of bodily rhythm signal (timing) and mutual relationships (coherence) support emergence of feeling doing the Kendo robot match in the same place in remote Kendo match. These findings provide us the important design guideline for the embodied interface for supporting creation of timing (time) and co-sharing of the space (Ba) between remote locates.
