About

Joakim Bergqvist’s research lies at the intersection of human-computer interaction and organizational studies, with a particular focus on how non-expert users first engage with emerging robotic technologies. His most cited work, a 2018 empirical study of office workers encountering robotic telepresence for the first time, provides foundational insights into the usability challenges and social dynamics that arise when these systems enter everyday work environments. By documenting the real-world reactions, frustrations, and adaptations of users with no technical background, Bergqvist has helped shape design guidelines for more intuitive and inclusive robotic interfaces. His contributions are especially valuable as telepresence robots move from niche applications into mainstream consumer and workplace settings. With 25 citations on this key paper alone, his work is increasingly referenced by researchers exploring technology adoption, user experience, and the sociology of human-robot interaction. Bergqvist’s research stands out for its practical relevance—offering actionable lessons for designers and organizations preparing for a future where robots are not just tools but co-present collaborators.
