About

HOROLOGY LAB

Features
Read full description

HOROLOGY LAB – An application featuring ten watch models with diverse mechanisms. Users can browse, filter, and select models from the library; rotate, zoom, detach straps, use X-ray views, and explode assemblies to examine structures; view component labels that track positions and auto-align during rotation; select individual parts to view in isolation or read descriptions; disassemble and reassemble in the correct order; drag detached assemblies, undo actions, or reset positions; experiment with materials, adjust cross-sections, and compare surfaces on the same part; operate movements by winding, spinning the automatic rotor, or powering on (depending on the model); adjust speed, pause, and trace energy flow step-by-step; compare two movements with independent power sources and optional synchronization; explore functions such as chronographs, dual time zones, date displays, moon phases, power reserves, and tourbillons; adjust battery, lighting, or oscillation settings on supported models; and view time synced to the device. In the design workshop, users can select components, change materials or finishes, swap in compatible parts from other models, confirm or undo selections, reassemble, name, save, edit, and delete designs. Data is stored locally on the device or kept only for the current session if browser storage is restricted. Main pages are linked via a bottom navigation bar (which hides on secondary screens); the app supports touch, mouse, and keyboard inputs, as well as reduced motion settings. It operates offline; simulations are for observation purposes and do not replace precise measurements or manufacturing verification.

About

WILDTRACE!

Features
Read full description

WILDTRACE! – This app is a journey of wildlife exploration where players search for and filter species by name, habitat, or conservation status; open profiles to view characteristics, anatomy, life cycles, evolution, communication signals, and locomotion; and then carry out research activitiesβ€”such as rehabilitating individuals by balancing health and selecting care plans, formulating behavioral hypotheses and adjusting cover and noise levels, planning foraging routes based on energy, time, and risk, classifying footage from four camera traps for population statistics, matching patterns against individual records, aligning DNA samples with reference sequences, and mapping herd networks. Conservation missions require allocating rangers, camera traps, and drones within budget limits; selecting evidence and arranging timelines to solve cases; and balancing a coexistence budget across residents, science, and conservation. A creative zone allows for drafting four-step field missions, designing bird nests using at least two materials to test against wind, rain, or storms, and matching biological traits with model components to evaluate effectiveness. Saved discoveries can be displayed in three museum slots without duplication, while all results and journey details are recorded in a field log; data is saved locally for offline use, with a focus on self-observation, evidence matching, completing mission chains, and reviewing achievements.
