Senior🎓
Top SchoolFlorian Apavou is a PhD student in Human-Computer Interaction at Université Paris-Saclay’s VENISE team, combining nine years of software and research experience to make sports and video games accessible to blind and visually impaired users. His doctoral work focuses on sonification, sensory substitution, and novel VR interaction methods to enable immersive shooting and Laser Run experiences with tailored audio feedback. He develops mobile and VR prototypes that bridge research and practice, aiming to let sighted and visually impaired players share leisure activities. Based in Orsay, he blends academic rigor with a gamer’s empathy, applying HCI principles to real-world inclusion challenges. An often-overlooked strength is his cross-disciplinary fluency: he moves comfortably between signal design, prototype implementation, and user-centered evaluation.
