About Vincent
In charge of the Innovative Interactions division at OCTO Technology, Vincent contributes to the development of new interactions between the user and the information system (B2C / B2E). A speaker on innovation and natural user interfaces, he discusses immersive experiences (VR/AR/MR), conversational interfaces (Bot), and the potential future of user interfaces…
In the past, he designed several prototypes of innovative interfaces using Kinect, which led him to create the Kinect Genius Bar (Kinect developers’ community) and co-found the “Natural User Interface Day” conference (http://twitter.com/nuiday). Since 2013, he has been recognized by Microsoft as one of the top European experts on Kinect and natural user interfaces (Most Valuable Professional award). Since 2015, his MVP trophy has been extended to emerging experiences and AI to include all more personal computing technologies (HoloLens, Bot, Speech, Ink, Gaze, Identity/Biometrics, Spatial awareness) and cognitive technologies like NLU and NLP.
