The 11th Furhat Conference on Social Robotics

Coming soon...

Thursday October 22nd 2026
CET 16:00 - 18:00 (EDT 10:00 - 12:00)

Welcome to the 11th Furhat Conference on Social Robotics

For its 10th edition, the Furhat Conference focuses on what happens when robots are placed in everyday contexts and what challenges and opportunities emerge outside the lab. Bringing together researchers and practitioners, the conference will highlight recent studies in areas such as healthcare, education, group interaction, and applied training systems. Through these perspectives, we want to reflect on how real-world deployment is shaping the way social robots are designed, studied, and evaluated.

Join us on the 22nd of October at 4:00-6:00 PM CEST (10:00-12:00 AM EST) for a focused discussion on the next phase of human–robot interaction grounded in practice, informed by research, and centered on real interaction.
