Verbeek's theory of technological mediation builds on the postphenomenological approach that was firstly stipulated by Don Ihde.

From a critique of classical philosophy of technology, in which Verbeek explicitly elaborates on the existentialist philosophy of Karl Jaspers and the hermeneutic philosophy of technology of Martin Heidegger.
Verbeek presents as the purpose of his theory of technological mediation to systematically analyzing the influence of technology on human behavior in terms of the role technology plays in human-world relations.
In his original theory, a number of different human-technology-world relations are stipulated (the first four based on the philosophy of Don Ihde):
A unique feature of Verbeek's philosophy of technology is its basis in an empirical analysis of technologies.
Instead of generating an overarching framework by which the universal features of specific technologies can be analyzed, Verbeek takes the technology itself as point of departure; which is for example illustrated by his analysis of ultrasound technology
