Experience
VR Surgical Simulator
The goal was to deliver a high-fidelity app exclusively designed for the client, a major global medtech, for them to provide relevant training to surgeons willing to use their medical kits.
I was in charge of developing 75% of the surgical acts (45 minutes of content) and the calibration algorithms for reconciling the real and virtual worlds—mixed reality. The team was composed of up to four developers working with the Scrum methodology.
Avatar Simulation Tool
http://bit.ly/3bzGsylStarted the project as the only developer, and the team grew to 5-6 developers. I was in charge of the architecture and orchestrated the development sprints using the Scrum methodology.
Although the project is confidential, the enclosed URL provides you with an article (in French) about the project, its regional associates, and its transnational funding.
