Senior🎓
Top SchoolMatt Insley is a multidisciplinary product design prototyper with 12 years of hands-on experience building next-generation input and interaction systems for AR/VR. Based in Seattle, he currently ships rapid prototypes and core UX innovations at Meta Reality Labs, contributing to products and models like Quest multimodal interaction, Orion hand tracking, Ray-Ban Stories, and Quest HDMI Link while holding patents on novel interaction ideas. His background blends bioengineering and embedded systems work—from surgical force-sensing devices and motion-tracked rehabilitation VR to lifeguarding and robotics volunteering—giving him a rare mix of human-centered design, hardware prototyping, and software engineering. Known as a maker/hacker, he excels at turning ambiguous research into tangible demos and production-ready interaction models. Notably, he has repeatedly introduced new technologies into product teams, operating in the “iceberg” space of unshipped innovations that seed major consumer features.
