Michael Gschwandtner is a seasoned software and computer vision engineer with 15 years of experience, currently co-founding XRWorkout to bring full-body, hand-tracking VR fitness experiences to consumers. He blends research-grade expertise from a PhD-level background in obstacle detection and sensor simulation with hands-on product engineering, having taught advanced C++ and built systems ranging from VoIP infrastructure to commercial computer vision services. As a persistent tinkerer, he turned motion tracking research into a practical AR/VR workout product that transforms any 6DOF headset into a private gym. He also advises IT operations at LVCC and runs a computer vision consultancy, demonstrating an ability to move between deep technical work and business-facing roles. Based in Vienna, he combines academic rigor with startup grit and a knack for shipping interactive, movement-focused experiences that push the limits of what’s comfortable and measurable in VR.
