This article introduces several types of robots having physical interactions among a human/humans and a robot/robots, which we have developed so far. MR Helper (mobile robot helper) is a mobile robot with dual manipulators, which could manipulate an object in cooperation with a human. DR Helpers (distributed robot helpers) are multiple small mobile robots which transport an object in cooperation with a human/humans. MS DanceR (mobile smart dance robot) could dance the waltz as a female dance partner with a male dancer. These examples inspire possible applications of the human-robot interaction in near future
