Alternative energy sources

This kit gives children the ability to work on alternative energy hands-on experiments as a part of a supplementary education program.

This kit is designed as a modular platform for building various electric circuits based on alternative energy sources.

Simple layout of an electric circuit built on interchangeable modules is easy to understand both for students and teachers.

Each topic included in the curriculum has a theoretical part and detailed instructions for the experiment.

Measurements and control functions are implemented using a dedicated data acquisition system. The software is developed in NI LabVIEW graphical programming environment. It’s intuitive and user-friendly interface is designed for easy adoption and optimization of teaching process.
