Summary
Sarang Borude is a Product Design Prototyper with 11 years of experience building immersive, user-centered prototypes across AR, robotics, and mobility at Meta Reality Labs, Amazon, Volkswagen, and Intel. He specializes in turning design concepts into working demos—on iOS, embedded platforms, and mixed reality—that validate ideas quickly with users and stakeholders. His work spans perceptual computing, spatial awareness wearables, and commerce-focused AR (virtual try-ons and in-room furniture placement), demonstrating a rare blend of hardware, software, and interaction design fluency. Comfortable with tools from OpenCV and ROS to Arduino and SolidWorks, he bridges design and engineering to create “boundary objects” that spark collaboration and feedback. Based in California, Sarang pairs an MS in HCI with hands-on prototyping practice to influence product direction early in the development cycle. An underrated strength is his habit of taking prototypes into the wild to gather real user insight that shapes subsequent iterations.
