Javier Rodríguez Lavandeira

Specialization: XR Developer (VR & AR) / Unity Developer
XR Developer (VR & AR) and Unity developer with an MSc in Virtual and Augmented Reality from Goldsmiths University of London and a Bachelor in Computer Science from Universidade da Coruña. Internship experience in XR/AR development, including a voice assistant library for Android and an augmented reality application for Vuzix Blade 2 smart glasses. Bachelor's Thesis (grade 9.5): implementation of a virtual keyboard based on motion detection with EMG sensors, built with Python and Arduino (C++) on an ESP32-S2 mini microcontroller, combining signal processing and machine learning algorithms. Other Unity projects: university assignments and games or interactive experiences made for Game Jams and Hackathons.

Java, Android, AR
Internships. XR/AR Department. ● During my time at the company, I contributed to two impactful projects. ● The first focused on developing a custom voice assistant for Android applications, leveraging voice recognition technology to enable seamless, hands-free interaction. I modularized the functionality into a reusable library and optimized it for efficiency and ease of integration. ● The second project was an augmented reality application for the Vuzix Blade 2 smart glasses. Built in Java, the app displayed real-time location data and status information of tracked individuals using Bluetooth connectivity. Despite hardware limitations, I implemented AR features without relying on ARCore, utilizing a custom canvas overlay. ● This experience enhanced my skills in Android development, voice recognition, Bluetooth communication, and AR technology.
