Sonya Seddarasan has been designing for spatial computing since before most people knew they needed it – on a mission since 2019 to make XR interactions as intuitive as tapping a phone screen.

As an XR UI/UX designer, she works across AR, VR, and MR – currently with VITAL Sports International and collaborating with studios building immersive apps in healthcare, culture, and sports performance. Her writing on spatial UI has reached over 50,000 readers.

She thinks out loud, shares what she learns, and has a sharp eye for where experience design goes wrong in immersive tech. Worth talking to after the session.
