EEG headset and accompanying rehabilitative software

Role: Software Designer & Developer

• Built custom interfaces for prototype hardware

• Built rehabilitation games for prototype hardware

• QA and managed testing with survivors of stroke

• Research assistance

I joined Exsurgo Rehab Ltd. shortly after its inception. I worked alongside robotics engineers, neuroscientists, physiotherapists and survivors of stroke. The sheer diversity of people and skills involved made it incredibly rewarding work.

As the company’s sole game/software designer, I needed to be very versatile. I had to manage all aspects of the production pipeline for two EEG support application and two rehabilitative games. One game was played using custom physiotherapeutic tools as controllers; while the other used a prototype EEG headset.
