We investigate communication using avatars projected on a spherical display between a user using a head mounted display from a remote location and a user near a spherical display at a local location. The remote participant becomes an avatar on the local sp herical display and communicates with the local participant by pretending to be a different person on the spherical display. The remote participant can look around the site using an all sky camera that can capture a 360°view of the surrounding space. The r esults of the experiment with the subjects showed that it is possible to convey emotions to others through changes in facial color and facial expression, and that additional efforts are needed to communicate by pretending to be a different person.
