معرفی
Fredrik Eriksson serves as an Assistant Professor in Media, Aesthetics and Narrative within the Department of Information Technology at the University of Skövde's School of Informatics. His academic work bridges technical and human-centered disciplines, focusing on practical applications of cognitive science and computer vision in real-world safety contexts.
His research primarily investigates human interaction with technology through two major streams: traffic safety systems analyzing cyclist behavior and visibility, and cybersecurity examining password creation strategies. This dual focus demonstrates his interdisciplinary approach connecting cognitive psychology with practical engineering solutions. His work consistently addresses how humans perceive and interact with technological systems in critical environments.
Analysis of his publications reveals a consistent trajectory from foundational traffic safety research (2013-2017) toward cybersecurity applications (2019), with continued work in computer vision applications (2021). His research shows strong collaboration patterns, typically working with 3-6 co-authors per publication across engineering and cognitive science disciplines.
While specific grants aren't detailed in available materials, his research output suggests involvement in transportation safety and cybersecurity initiatives, likely supported by Swedish research councils or industry partnerships in automotive and security sectors.
Within the School of Informatics, Eriksson contributes to bachelor's level education through multiple 7.5 and 15 credit courses, serving as Course Coordinator for several programs. His teaching appears focused on practical applications of media and narrative within technical contexts, aligning with his research interests in human-system interaction.
