Intrigued by immersive experiences, interactive installations and generative AI workflows?
The Spatial AI-Augmented Reality Lab (SAIARlab) is the research lab of Digital Design & Development (Devine). The lab brings together researchers, designers and creative technologists, operating at the crossroads of technology, creativity and experience design.
SAIARlab’s mission is to support companies and cultural organisations in adopting state-of-the-art immersive technologies and workflows. The lab explores how generative AI can support creative processes without losing the human touch, and how immersive and interactive experiences can be created through projection mapping and the integration of real-time sensor data. To make these technologies more accessible, SAIARlab operates a mobile and modular infrastructure that enables rapid prototyping of interactive projection mapping installations, where movement, sound and environmental data can be used as input for dynamic, AI-generated visual content in real time.

What do we do?
Enable Flemish creative (production) agencies to integrate generative AI into their workflows for immersive experiences (e.g., projection mapping at festivals, interactive installations in retail and museums). The project delivers methods, tooling, and exemplars to reduce complexity and production time, lowering client costs and improving agency margins while accelerating AI-based immersive concepts.

Why does project exist?
Demand is rising as the experience economy shifts value from products to experiences; immersive work boosts brand recognition, city marketing, and purchase intent. Yet high development costs and an AI knowledge gap within agencies hinder adoption, causing underestimation of AI’s value and missed opportunities for innovative, interactive, generative experiences. Integrating AI addresses these barriers and strengthens (inter)national competitiveness.
