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!

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.
