Summary
Fabian Affolter is a research-focused interaction designer and developer with nine years of multidisciplinary experience at FHNW, specializing in UX, interface and information visualization, and immersive technologies (VR/AR/MR). He blends academic research with practical web and prototype development, evidenced by a bachelor’s thesis that turned complex intellectual-capital assessment into an elegant three-click web app with precise visualizations and animations. Trained as an automatiker/mechatronics technician and later in computer science, he pairs hands-on mechanical assembly and test experience with strong HCI and visualization skills. At FHNW he works at the intersection of design and technology, turning research questions into interactive tools and evaluative interfaces. Colleagues value his ability to communicate across technical and design teams—an asset rooted in early roles on production lines and test benches that demanded both technical aptitude and collaboration. Based in Windisch, Switzerland, he brings a pragmatic, craft-oriented approach to complex interaction problems.
