About This Item

Description

This interactive sandbox uses 3D visualization to combine the sandbox experience with virtual topography and water for a more engaging play experience. This high-tech educational play solution allows users to create topography models by shaping real sand, which is then augmented in real-time by an elevation color map, topographic contour lines, and simulated water. The system teaches students how to read a topography map, the meaning of contour lines, watersheds, catchment areas, levees, and much more. Renders use a closed loop of a Microsoft Kinect 3D camera, powerful simulation and visualization software, and a data projector. The software was designed by a team of scientists at UC-Davis. A wire management system keeps the cords from interfering with the box. Shelf to hold the laptop while in use, which folds away with a collapsible hinge. The 36-inch dimension measures to the top of the table. Sand not included. We recommend six orders of item 1601030 for 300 pounds of sand.
