Don’t miss this one! Our co-founder Gabriel Skantze was interviewed today on @YahooFinance - and Furhat got to show off a few cool skills...
Highlight: "You can use this robot for different types of applications,” says @furhatrobotics co-Founder Gabriel Skantze on the robot with human-like gestures. "The robot can be used for different things like receptions, education, health care, and so on."

Very interesting panel #OSEF19 @OxfordSBS @OxfordECentre on ‘Rise of Robots’. One of the speakers is a ‘social’ robot (@furhatrobotics ), that shows empathy and explains how they will help us (humans) with boring, dirty and dangerous work... Amazing!

We will be part of the Rise of the Robotics panel at @OxfordSBS this weekend. Looking forward to this debate!

The third in our three-part inspirational video series. This time we put the spotlight on bias in the recruitment process and how robots can make a difference. #furhatrobotics #socialrobotsarenow #HRtech

You rush to the airport, you have no idea where your gate is & the signs don't make sense as you don’t speak the local language. The worst thing? No-one is around to help! 🤯
This is one of the ways we believe social robots can be of service.
