About

Mikael Wiberg is a distinguished researcher in human-computer interaction (HCI), with a particular focus on interaction design, ubiquitous computing, and the materiality of digital interfaces. His work explores how physical and digital worlds converge, especially in the design of tangible and embodied interactions. One of his notable contributions is the study of telepresence robots, as exemplified in his 2017 paper "Mobile Remote Presence Enhanced with Contactless Object Manipulation" (8 citations), which addresses the critical limitation of telepresence systems in interacting with physical environments. Wiberg’s broader research advances the understanding of how computational materials shape user experiences, and he has been instrumental in developing theoretical frameworks for interaction design, including the concept of "material interaction." With a career spanning over two decades, his work has influenced both academic discourse and practical design methodologies, earning him recognition as a leading voice in HCI. His publications consistently bridge theory and application, making his research essential for students and practitioners interested in the future of seamless, physically integrated digital interactions.
