Jeremy Hartmann is a founder and PhD-trained computer scientist with 12 years of experience building at the intersection of HCI, XR, and AI. He leads two ventures—mtion interactive, focused on community-driven social worlds, and a stealth startup exploring AI+HCI products—translating research prototypes into persistent, play-driven experiences. His academic work at the University of Waterloo and research stints at Microsoft and Adobe emphasize interaction techniques across the virtuality-reality continuum and advancing VR/360 media. Equally comfortable in research and product roles, he pairs deep technical expertise in graphics and perception with a creative background in music and electroacoustics. Known for turning “caffeine into computationally (in)tractable code,” he brings a pragmatic experimentalism that surfaces from lab-grade research into shipped user experiences.
