These are some examples of Dr. Doolani's work in Virtual Reality
The Reality Experience Design (RED) Lab at SFSU is where cutting-edge technology meets human creativity! Nestled in the Computer Science Department, we are a highly interdisciplinary research lab exploring the frontiers of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), Virtual and Augmented Reality (VR/AR), and Usable AI—all with one goal: enhancing human performance through immersive experiences.
At RED Lab, we don’t just research—we build, test, and experience innovation. Whether it’s designing XR-powered learning tools, making AI more intuitive and user-friendly, or transforming a cool idea into a real product, we thrive at the intersection of technology, psychology, and design.
Interdisciplinary Research: We publish groundbreaking work using mixed-method research (both quantitative & qualitative).
Entrepreneurial Mindset: We don’t just think—we create and launch! From ideation to product development, we help shape the next generation of HCI entrepreneurs.
Hands-on Learning: Our workshops dive into XR tech, usability testing, app & web design, and more!
If you are interested in research opportunities at RED Lab, we encourage you to apply. We welcome students, researchers, and collaborators who are passionate about shaping the future of AI, AR/VR, and HCI.
It was a brand new space.
Dr. Doolani excited to invite you to this exciting new space and HCI journey!
We have set it up as a cozy collaborative workspace.
Students can work on projects and participate in workshops.
We believe in empowering students to turn ideas into reality. Whether you have your own project or want to contribute to others, RED Lab provides an open space for collaboration, mentorship, and hands-on learning.
Join our workshops, hackathons, and research talks to help students gain practical experience in AI, machine learning, and immersive technologies.
