Jason Reisman is a Principal Researcher in human-robot interaction with two decades of deep expertise spanning HCI, input devices, real-time graphics, and scientific computing. He has led teams and shipped products from startup labs to billion-dollar platforms—shaping EMG-based input research at CTRL-labs and Meta and now advancing human-robot interfaces at Fauna Robotics. Jason combines systems-level engineering (C++, OpenGL, high-performance graphics) with user-centered research, having built production-grade multi-touch and pen systems and novel interaction algorithms. He’s comfortable moving between hands-on prototyping and org-level leadership, hiring and scaling engineering teams for cross-platform products. Based in New York, his background in cognitive science and academic research informs a practical, experimentally driven approach to interaction design. A less obvious throughline: many of his projects emphasize squeezing real-time performance from constrained hardware, from Java applets for low-bandwidth contexts to 120 FPS large-display engines.
