Olga Ivanova is the founder of VR Oxygen, a VR-native Research Platform. She is on a mission to enable every VR developer to guarantee the success of their games by streamlining the research process and having a smooth user-friendly experience for participants. Among the games VR Oxygen worked with are “Cosmonious High” by Google-owned Owlchemy Labs and “Pixel Ripped 1978” by Ana Ribeiro and ARVORE, published by Atari. One of Olga’s contributions to the VR community was sharing her expertise with Meta as referenced in the VR Playtesting Guide on the Oculus developer website. For almost a decade Olga has been working on VR playtesting solutions. She has built a VR Heuristic evaluation tool before Oculus VRC existed and shared knowledge about VR user testing that she gained from her hands-on experience with building VR products.
