Biography

Frederik Brudy is a Principal Research Scientist at Autodesk Research in Toronto, Canada. His research is in human-computer interaction (HCI), focusing on novel interaction techniques, multi-modal interaction for generative AI, and cross-device & XR systems. His work explores how people collaborate and create, and how technology can better align with human cognition and experience.

His approach combines designing and building systems with empirical study. He developed and deployed both software systems and physical computing prototypes, evaluated in lab and in-situ studies, and his work draws on methods such as interviews, observations, ethnography, and iterative user-centred design.

Prior to joining Autodesk, he received a PhD in Computer Science, Human-Computer Interaction from University College London and a Master’s degree from University of Munich (LMU). For his PhD he designed and built cross-device interaction techniques and tools that support curation activities, and more generally knowledge work.
