Paid COI declared. Seeking permission to add the following under the "examples" section:

Furhat, developed by Furhat Robotics, is a robotic head with a projected human-like face capable of conversing with humans using speech recognition and synthesis and by tracking gestures and eye movement. It is used in human-robot research, and has been applied in customer service roles, language education, and recruitment. <ref name="TUGraz2024">{{cite web

:As a note, @[[User:Viljowf|Viljowf]], the ''Forbes'' article is from a contributor and generally unreliable, so an editor will likely deem it inadmissible as a reference. See [[WP:FORBES]].
