Visit Our Booth
Visit booth 425 to interact with some of our favorite Vernier products and experiments. These products build STEM skills and allow all students to engage in real-world problem-solving around today’s top local and global challenges.
The Dynamics Cart and Track System provides students with the tools they need to explore kinematics, dynamics, momentum, and energy. This versatile system can also be easily adapted to study optics, color, and diffraction.
This powerful and versatile light sensor measures light in the visible and ultraviolet electromagnetic spectrum. It also contains a red, green, and blue (RGB) sensor. Students can use this sensor to learn about important climate change concepts, such as albedo.
KidWind helps learners gain an understanding of wind power. This kit allows students to test a variety of blade designs, generate electricity, and lift weights.
This kit is designed to help learners investigate energy transformations. Students can experiment with basic circuits and learn about important factors in photovoltaic systems.
The Kidwind simpleGEN is an easy-to-build AC generator that allows students to explore the basics of electrical generator design.
With our award-winning Graphical Analysis Pro app, students can visualize scientific data collected from Vernier sensors—boosting their understanding and engagement using rich, real-time graphs. This easy-to-use-app works on operating systems commonly found in the classroom.
