This study aims to develop an embodied avatar mediated communication system within the same communication space in network communication. We proposed the concept of a virtual communication avatar "PuppetAvatar" in which remote talkers can operate their own avatar by their hand motion under the restricted condition, and developed the prototype of the system by using a glove sensor or a trackball. In this paper, we developed 3D trackball which has 3-DOF and one handling-ball for manipulation of an avatar's motion by a talker. The communication experiment was performed for 15 pairs of 30 talkers by using 3D trackball. Sensory evaluation and analysis of embodied avatar manipulation demonstrate the effectiveness of the system in the comparison with the wireless mouse, trackball, and 3D mouse.
