Stanford University's Virtual Human Interaction Lab

Stanford University's Virtual Human Interaction Lab is a research facility that explores how virtual reality (VR) technology influences human behavior, emotions, and social interactions. By creating immersive digital environments, the lab studies how experiences in virtual worlds impact real-world attitudes, empathy, and understanding. Researchers develop simulations to better understand human psychology and to improve applications in education, therapy, and social awareness. The lab’s work aims to harness VR's potential to promote positive change and deepen insights into human perception and behavior.
