The social robots of the future are in Sweden

INBOTS is part of the development of a Swedish exhibition that invites the public to reflect on the social robots of the future.

The exhibition “Hello Robot” opened on October 5, 2019 at the Work Museum in Norrköping and wants to explain the context of social robots and raise concerns about their role in society. The interaction with robots seems to be here to stay – at home, in the city and in the workplaces.

What role do we want social robots to play in the society of the future?

In the exhibition, the visitor encounters the social robot Furhat, which was developed at the Royal Institute of Technology, KTH, in Sweden. The exhibition also includes various thought-provoking situations where we already use robots today, in homes and in elderly care.
