Engineering Solutions for College
Vernier Engineering Solutions
Our engineering solutions help instructors challenge students to apply their knowledge to hands-on, interactive activities. With these solutions, students use data-collection technology to analyze different engineering designs and concepts, evaluate structure and material strength, and much more.
Featured Solutions
Introduction to Engineering
Give your students the strong foundation they need to excel in engineering. Our hands-on solutions challenge students to use engineering design process to build and test bridges, build a solar charger to meet certain design criteria, and more.
Wind Turbine Design
Introduce civil, mechanical, and electrical engineering concepts by designing and testing turbine blades.
Structures and Material Testing
Evaluate structure and material strength by measuring load and deflection, then graphing the resulting data in real time.
Engineering with Arduino®
Use Vernier sensors with Arduino to introduce students to programming, design, measurement, and hands-on projects.
Featured Use Case
Read how David Carter, an instructor at Kansas State University, Engineering Extension, uses wind energy in Introduction to Mechanical Engineering 101.Â
Measurement and Instrumentation
Help your engineering students understand and apply sensor technology through our measurement and instrumentation solutions.
Biomedical Engineering with Go Direct® Sensors
With wireless options and multiple on-board sensors, Go Direct sensors are perfect for analyzing and studying physiology functions.
NI LabVIEWâ„¢ and Vernier
Integrate over 50 wireless sensors into LabVIEW projects or combine sensors with SensorDAQ®, NI myDAQ, or NI ELVIS.
Arduino®
Sample sketches, an Arduino library, activity book, an online guide make it easy to connect Vernier sensors to Arduino microcontrollers.
Engineering Education in Action
Read how Mikolaj (Nick) Mroszczak, a mechanical engineering student at Cardiff University, developed a web-connected medical monitor using Vernier sensors during his internship at National Instruments.Â
Engineering Outreach
Foster an interest in engineering through coding, robotics, renewable energy exploration, and structural design and material science. See how these proven outreach tools can help students engage in the engineering community and build a strong foundation for their academic and professional careers.
Bridge Building
Inspire ingenuity and problem solving with bridge-building outreach activities.
Wind Energy
