Diffraction Apparatus
Now you can map light intensity vs. position for many slit geometries. Vernier’s Diffraction Apparatus consists of a laser light source, a collection of diffraction and interference slits, a novel Linear Position Sensor, and High Sensitivity Light Sensor.
Volunteering for Habitat for Humanity
Vernier employees worked at the Huntting Park build site in Beaverton on a cold, sometimes rainy (it even hailed!) day in February for the local Willamette West Habitat for Humanity.
Springfield Students Explore Science Through Probes
KEZI Springfield has a video about how an elementary and middle school in Springfield, Oregon are using Vernier technology.
“The students are very excited about it because they get to learn to read data. They collect data on the computers and they learn to read the data, and that’s probably the most important thing is how do you read data that’s been collected and they are really excited about using the different probes we have,” said fifth grade teacher Rita Weber.
“I really like science because you get to do a lot of experiments and test things on computers and different kinds of probes,” said fifth grader Kate Bakken.
