Robotics and avatars are all about the interaction between humans and computational intelligence, mimicking both verbally and non-verbally through artificial intelligence algorithms.
With these technologies, we can have conversations with computers embodied in robots or virtual people who walk up to us, make eye contact, use facial expressions and start a conversation.
In journalism, for example, you can use a virtual personal newsreader, in healthcare you can use care droids in nursing homes, or you can use them as intelligent training systems in maintenance, healthcare or the aerospace industry. And as an intelligent in-service training system at educational institutions. The possibilities are endless.
