About Karma

thousand flocking stars
they look beyond the sky
for the limits to dissappear ...

Dhruv Aryan

Coming from the princely town named Gondal, Gujarat, India has kept me always curious for whats next, what is this magical world made up of? and how can I contribute in a meaningful way to the world around me? This lead me to the journey and relationship very deep with machines and technology.

With my father as inspiration and mother as a finest support system I can have, I was able to gain knowledge that helped me invent and bring novel products to market. I am also highly grateful to my older brother Sumit, who instilled in me the qualities of entrepreneurship combined with pragmatic approach towards problem solving.

Over past a decade I have combined my entrepreneurial spirit with the neck of innovation to create products in the field of Human Computer Interaction. My primary research includes in the field of creating novel interfaces, holography and social computing. Several of my research work has received recognition & accolades both nationally and internationally. My lifelong vision is to Humanize Technology and to bring Human factors into every technology and innovation that I design.

Current Academic Pursuit

I am currently pursuing my PhD at Simon Fraser University's School of Interactive Arts and Technology (SIAT), where I am a member of the Metacreation Lab for Creative AI. This lab is at the forefront of developing generative systems and creative AI technologies, focusing on human-level creativity for content creation. My research aligns with the lab's mission to advance the theory and practice of Creative AI and generative systems.

Vayu - Bio-Adaptive Breathing Technology

One of my current research initiatives focuses on Vayu, an innovative bio-adaptive breathing technology that bridges ancient yogic breathing practices with modern human-computer interaction. Vayu explores the intersection of breath, flow states, and human performance through the lens of sound-guided breathing and vibration. This research embodies my philosophy of "Breathe, Flow and Conquer" - using technology to enhance mindfulness, reduce stress, and unlock human potential. You can download the app here to experience it yourself.

At the Metacreation Lab, I continue to advance this research, investigating how bio-adaptive interfaces can respond to physiological signals like breath patterns to create more intuitive and human-centered interactive experiences. This work combines my deep interest in Ashtang Yoga with cutting-edge research in bio-adaptive systems, creative AI, and interactive media.

Past and Current Associations

Currently, I have cofounded and running two companies called H Plus Technologies and Cela Technologies. Apart from this, I spend time with young budding entrepreneurs to help them bring their innovation to market. Recently I have been part of mentorship program at VR AR association.
