Nic Barbotin is a senior software engineer and research associate based in Adelaide with 11 years of experience building advanced visualization and AR/VR demonstrators for academia and industry, including projects for BAE Systems. He combines strong academic training (Diploma in Engineering, UTBM) with practical systems work—Unity-based data visualization, web apps for real-time experiment monitoring, and ELK/Ansible pipelines. Nic has taught C++ at university level and coordinated courses, bringing both pedagogy and hands-on prototyping to research teams. His background spans end-to-end development from hardware-proximate AR prototypes to production-ready visualization tools, and he often sits at the intersection of human factors and technical implementation. Colleagues know him for pragmatic problem-solving and for defending a scientific-first mindset in engineering decisions. Based in South Australia, he blends European engineering roots with a collaborative research-oriented approach to applied visualization.
