About

Ole B. Jensen is a leading scholar in the field of mobilities research, exploring the intricate relationships between physical movement, urban design, and technology. His work fundamentally rethinks how we experience cities, arguing that mobility is not merely a functional necessity but a deeply cultural and performative act. Jensen’s concept of “networked mobilities” examines how the movement of people, objects, and information creates dynamic, interconnected urban environments. He is particularly known for his pioneering work in human-robot interaction within public spaces, as demonstrated in his pilot study on person-robot interaction in a transit setting (15 citations). This research bridges engineering and social science, investigating how autonomous technologies reshape our everyday experiences of movement and place. Jensen’s contributions have been recognized internationally, with his keynote paper on performative urban environments (2 citations) laying foundational groundwork for the field. His work continues to influence urban planners, architects, and technologists, challenging them to design cities that accommodate not just static structures but the fluid, networked flows of modern life.
