Flip the laboratory and do Physics experiments using your smartphone! Perform your own scientific investigations anytime, anywhere. It records and shows real-time measurements from standard sensors in your smartphone including the accelerometer, magnetometer, gyroscope in the intuitive gauge mode or in a more scientific chart mode. Using the built-in microphone and speaker, it turns your smartphone into a sound level meter, a sound generator and even a sound spectrum analyzer. You may save and share the sensor data for further analysis.

About

CloudLabs Measuring Tools

Features
Read full description

In this practice, you are going to tidy up a laboratory, starting with objects that must be stored in places with specific measurements. To place them in the right place, these objects must be measured using three instruments that will be built during the practice. These instruments will allow measuring length, surface and capacity respectively.
