Portal XR

Portal XR Inc. was founded by a group of students from Harvard and the University of Massachusetts Amherst with the vision of pushing the boundaries of extended reality (XR). The project seeks to improve the field of view of XR devices while maintaining a compact optical system. To this end, the team focused its efforts on

• developing a simulation informed design of the primary focusing element
• designing a display system to interface with the focusing element.

I was brought on in the early stages of the project to help define the optical simulation, and drive development of display hardware that would be used alongside a metasurface focusing solution.
