Robots can make the world much more human!
We believe that face-to-face interaction is a basic human need. Even a driver for quality of life and mental health. We believe that technology needs to interact with people on human terms.
Robots, specially humanoid social robots, are a competitor to other forms of current technologies occupying our world, and not a competitor to humans. Humanoid robots have the potential to bring incredible prosperty to the world, solve labor shortages, improve education, companionship and mental health, and potentially disrupt every industry where technology and humans meet.
We want to make sure this technology makes the world a better place. Today we work with thousands of scientists, organisations, and communities, to design, develop, and test applications for Furhat across many disciplines. The technology is ready, but the world is not (justifiably), and working transparently together with others is how we will bring awareness and acceptance of robots to the commercial world, and ultimately to the home.
