Physics with Video Analysis contains 32 new video analysis activities for introductory physics at either the high school or college level. Topics include kinematics, dynamics, circuits, sound, thermodynamics, electrostatics, and more. The activities are centered on a collection of ready-to-go videos created for this book. Collecting good videos for analysis can be challenging, and the provided videos are a delight to work with.
Measure real-time electricity usage with the Watts Up Pro with Logger Pro or LabQuest. Collect data such as real power, potential, current, and apparent power. The Watts Up Pro also calculates a wide variety of data, including maximum watts, frequency, and cumulative costs.
Coming Soon! Go!Tweet is free software for Vernier Go! sensors to a Twitter account, making it easy to share sensor data to the internet from anywhere!
STEM 2 with Vernier® and LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT has activities using a Force Sensor, Magnetic Field Sensor, Voltage Probe, and Gas Pressure Sensor. It covers topics in physical science and engineering, including mechanics, pressure, electricity, and magnetism. Students are challenged to build and program robots for testing batteries, finding land mines, and controlling a Cartesian diver. Twelve classic labs done with these same sensors and the NXT are also included.
The White Digital Bioimaging System allows you to view non-fluorescent, visible stain gels, capture the image digitally on a computer and analyze the data using Logger Pro software, making gel analysis less tedious and produce better results.
The Vernier Gas Chromatograph, or “Mini GC,” is an instrument for separating, analyzing, and identifying substances contained in a volatile liquid or gaseous sample.
It has all of the key components of a traditional gas chromatograph, including an injection port, temperature and pressure controls, a thin capillary column through which different substances pass at different rates depending on various chemical and physical properties, and a sensor for detecting the arrival of compounds.
The Mini GC also has the added benefit of a new patented MEMS chip sensor which allows for room air to be used as a carrier gas. Its compact size makes it an ideal solution for students to learn the principles of gas chromatography.
Investigating Chemistry with Inquiry is a new lab book which contains 25 inquiry-based chemistry investigations. Each experiment includes a preliminary activity, teacher information, sample researchable questions, and sample data for those researchable questions.
Now you can charge and store your LabQuests with the new LabQuest Charging Station. You will find it both affordably priced and scalable.
Now you can choose exactly which Vernier labs appear on your LabQuest. Simply select your favorite experiments from over 400 Vernier labs and download them to your classroom set of LabQuests. Customizing your LabQuest has never been easier.
The new Vernier Power Amplifier allows your students to drive a variety of devices, including speakers, lamps, small DC motors and RLC circuits. The Power Amplifier delivers ± 10 V and currents up to 1 A. It works with any waveform, including DC, sine, square, triangle and sawtooth.
Now when you collect sensor data around the globe with LabQuest or a computer, your students
can record their exact latitude, longitude, and altitude. Vernier’s new GPS Sensor is as small as your
thumb, and is affordably priced for school budgets.
We’re launching a free public beta of our award-winning Logger Pro software for the Ubuntu Linux operating system. Now you can use Logger Pro’s data collection and analysis features on the popular free operating system.

We’ve done a complete redesign of the Optics Expansion Kit for the Vernier Dynamics System to make it easier to use.
Key improvements:
- The parts are now molded plastic that snap onto the track, making it possible to leave them in place when the track is moved.
- The three lenses are permanently mounted in three plastic supports for better durability.
- The point light source is now LED-based, using less energy and running at cooler temperatures.
- A new aperture plate lets you do experiments regarding lens diameter and shape, including the classic half-a-lens demonstration.
The redesigned Optics Expansion Kit is available today!
Looking for a sale? Our previous design of the Optics Expansion Kit is available for only $99. Limited quantities are available and ready for purchase from our overstock »
Create your own custom labs for the LabQuest with Lab Creator. This web-based application allows you to write a lab from scratch or copy and paste from an existing document on your computer and download it to your LabQuest.
We’ve released it as a beta version to get user feedback. The full release will be with the LabQuest 1.2 update, which includes enhancements for viewing labs on your LabQuest.
Netbooks, or subnotebook computers, are a great low-cost solution for a classroom on a limited budget. They are feature-packed computers and you can add data collection to their capabilities with Vernier software and probeware!
We’re offering free data-collection software for three popular netbooks, the Classmate PC powered by Intel, the One Laptop Per Child XO Computer, and the Asus Eee PC.
