Summary
Michael Eichenseer is a founder and systems-focused VR designer with a decade of experience building cross-platform virtual worlds and low-latency distributed multiplayer networks. He leads VRdōjō, designing a serverless, distance-agnostic networking stack and an evolving VR title (Dust: Virtual Combat) aimed at competitive, eSports-capable gameplay across diverse hardware. Previously he ran AR/VR programs and taught VR development at the University of Missouri–Kansas City, consulted local industry, and helped launch campus eSports facilities. His background spans product, ops, and content—cofounding startups, designing training programs, and authoring XR research and editorial work—giving him both technical depth and a narrative-first approach to experience design. Based in Kansas City, he balances hands-on engineering (Unity, C#) with community building and creator-friendly tooling, and he’s deliberately engineered systems that enable cinematic in-game content as much as fair competition. Outside work he’s a husband, father, and IT consultant—bringing pragmatic, user-centered perspectives to ambitious spatial-computing projects.
