To support a bedridden person, we propose a novel teaching method for a caregiving robot to manipulate a physical object in a real world. User's instruction can be intuitively transmitted to the robot by the ''drag-and-drop'' operation between a virtual object in a PC display and the physical object. The validity of the proposed method is experimentally confirmed using a fetching task as an example.
