Human-centric design

To interact with us robots need to see, hear, speak, and express themselves as naturally as we can. Furhat is specifically designed for human social interactions using a multimodal system that allows it to interact with us just as we interact with each other.

The Furhat mask

Furhat's swapable polymer magnetic mask is designed with adult human curvatures to display human facial elements of any size and shape, including eyebrows, eyes, nose, mouth, lips and more. Child and Anime masks are also available on demand.

Back-projected face

Furhat's back-projection system gives it real time high-fidelity rendering of dynamic facial expressions and lip-syncing through a smart 3D graphics face engine.

Smart vision system

Furhat's visual perception system is comprised of a 120 degree diagonal field-of-view camera that includes a highly accurate face detection based on state-of-the-art deep learning (single-shot-detector) model, depth estimation, and spatial modelling.

HiFi audio System

Built-in microphones and an external USB multi-array microphone with noise cancelation and direction of arrival for audio localization. High fidelity speakers with volume control that give Furhat a clear and distinguishable voice in noisy environments.

LED ring

Furhat's LED ring enables a silver lining effect, giving the robot the ability to signal when events occur in the system, further increasing its presence in a space when needed.

Connection ports

Furhat comes with several ports for input and output, including an ethernet port, audio jack and USB ports for connecting devices such as microphones, headphones, keyboards, and more.

Back-projection

Furhat uses a back-projection system for real time high-fidelity rendering of multi-layered textures that can be customized to create a life-like and dynamic face of any age, ethnicity and gender.

Furhat’s customizability enables unlimited opportunities for research and development.

Life-like facial animations

Furhat comes with an automatic lip-syncing model and gestures such as blinking, smiling, nodding, frowning, and other gestures that can be controlled individually or fully automated with Large Language Models.

Customizable appearance

The groundbreaking combination of back-projected facial animations, replaceable masks and face customization tools make it easy to create expressive characters of any age, ethnicity and gender.

An open platform that evolves with you and improves with every technological breakthrough on the market.

Multi-user tracking

Furhat uses computer vision to track up to 10 multiple users in real-time, estimate user engagement and distance with the ability to distinguish between them and remember them during the course of an interaction. You can also easily stream your video feed to external models for more advanced user and environment analysis.

Advanced NLU engine

Multilingual conversations  

Furhat has support for more 120 languages and 200+ voices from leading cloud service providers including Microsoft Azure, Amazon and ElevenLabs.

Rapid turn-taking

Furhat is designed for natural conversations with rapid turn-taking. You have detailed control for managing initiative, turn-taking, interruptions, error handling and more.

LLM-automation

You can also fully automate conversations by replacing your Furhat's NLU engine with any Large Language Model.
