Winning team at the Google Android XR Hackathon, Build for XREAL Project Aura
Problem

Professional networking is cognitively demanding, while ambient attendee data can quickly become invasive or socially uncomfortable.

Approach

The system pairs a React preparation and follow-up portal with a Unity spatial client that presents limited, contextual information only when it is useful. Shaped with teammates and Google mentors during the hackathon.

Outcome

It won 1st place at the Android XR Hackathon (Build for XREAL Project Aura) and shows ethical product framing for wearable computing.
