Vernier Connections® is now powered by Penda Learning, bringing real-time sensor data and NGSS-designed investigations into Penda Learning’s platform. This integration enhances multimodal learning, helping students engage with science concepts through hands-on data and digital content—maximizing impact in the classroom!
See it in action!

Join us for a short in-booth demo to explore how Vernier Connections powered by Penda enhances hands-on learning with real-time data integration.

Featured Products
LabQuest® 3 is a standalone data-collection platform that students can use to collect, analyze, and interact with data efficiently.
The Go Direct® Gas Pressure Sensor measures the absolute pressure of a gas.
The Go Direct CO2 Gas Sensor measures gaseous carbon dioxide concentration levels, air temperature, and relative humidity.
The Go Direct O2 Gas Sensor measures gaseous oxygen concentration levels and air temperature.
The Go Direct SpectroVis® Plus Spectrophotometer can easily collect a full wavelength spectrum (absorbance, percent transmittance, or intensity) in less than one second. Once the peak wavelength is determined, you can establish the concentration of a solution (Beer’s law) or monitor rates of reactions.
The Go Direct pH Sensor is a general-purpose pH sensor used to monitor pH of aqueous solutions and is perfect for lab and field experiments.
The Go Direct Drop Counter precisely records the number of drops of titrant added during a titration and then automatically converts it to volume.
The 4-wavelength Go Direct Colorimeter measures absorbance or transmittance of a liquid sample.
Designed for much greater forces than the Dual-Range Force or the Go Direct Force and Acceleration sensors, the Go Direct Force Plate can measure the forces developed during stepping, jumping, and other human-scale actions.
With the KidWind Advanced Wind Experiment Kit, your students can discover complex aspects of wind turbine technology. They can also test different blade designs, gear ratios, generators, and devices to measure electrical and weightlifting power.
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.
The Cart Fan is a modular fan you can add to the Dynamics Cart and Track System and Go Direct Sensor Carts that gives students the ability to perform kinematics and dynamics experiments.
The Go Direct Photogate is a double-gate sensor that includes two photogates built into the arms of the sensor, which accurately measures velocity and acceleration.
The 4-wavelength Go Direct Colorimeter measures absorbance or transmittance of a liquid sample.
