Updates on Motion Visualizer (iOS only)
We are excited to share a new update for LiDAR-enabled iPhones! The Motion Visualizer now has a special "game" mode with the first set of graph-match tasks.
This app supports embodied learning, helping students to make sense of kinematics graphs, including the physical meaning of y-intercepts and slopes. We hope to provide ongoing updates over the next few months.
If you have feedback or would like to be involved in our project, please drop us a note at support@vieyrasoftware.net!
