We are delighted to receive the Honorable Mention Award at the Mensch und Computer (MuC) 2025 conference in Chemnitz for our demo paper "Worldhat: A Humanoid Social Robot Interpreter for Multilingual Dyadic Conversations", a joint work by Sandra Müller, Martin Feick and Alexander Maedche from the human-centered systems lab (h-lab) of the Institute for Information Systems (WIN). 

We introduce Worldhat, a humanoid robot interpreter that supports real-time multilingual communication through speech translation and embodied interaction. Built on the Furhat SDK, Worldhat integrates speech recognition, machine translation, and speech output, simulating the social behaviors of a human interpreter. It highlights how embodied interaction can enhance translation systems.
