LEGO - Microscope
Whether it's computers, mobile phones, light sources or other electronic devices, very small elements that work extremely efficiently are used everywhere. Using a functional LEGO replica of an atomic force microscope, you can gain insights into how the smallest units, down to individual atoms, can be imaged. An exhibit from the Institute of Applied Physics.
Young Food Chemistry: ”Are there only chemicals in food?”
What is in our food and what has it got to do with chemistry? Join us to find out through exciting experiments: mix your own colourful algae pearls, test your sense of different flavours, explore dyes and carry out a real titration. An exhibition by the Institute of Food Chemistry.
Agnes Pockels Student Laboratory: “Hands-on experiments”
Rising levels of CO₂ in the atmosphere, acidification of the ocean and much more - climate change is on everyone's lips. Hands-on experiments illustrate the various effects of climate change. An exhibit from the Agnes Pockels Student Laboratory.
False History Awareness: Recognising and refuting historical misinformation
At five stations (divided into ancient, medieval, early modern, modern and technological history), guests can use tablets (possible collaboration with the Media Lab) to view an original and a fake historical document (newspaper article, certificate, picture, painting, etc.) that are similar in appearance and content. With the help of moderators, guests make an informed decision as to which document is fake. If they get all five stations right, they win a small prize! An exhibit from the Institute of Historical Science.
Show Wave Canal
In the Wave Canal, different wave scenarios can be experienced on a miniature scale. Interactive models, such as offshore wind turbines, can be integrated to provide a vivid, tactile experience of wave movements. An exhibit from the Leichtweiß Institute, Department of Hydromechanics, Coastal Engineering and Marine Construction.
Sandbox - Real-time simulation of surface runoff
The “Augmented Reality Sandbox” enables the simulation of surface runoff in real time on interactively designed miniature landscapes. Participants can use their hands to shape mountains and valleys in the sand and observe how virtual water flows over the various terrain features. This playful simulation provides a deeper understanding of hydrological processes.
An exhibit from the Leichtweiß Institute, Department of Hydrology and River Basin Management.
Slide Memory
Play Slide Memory against or with each other! The player who recognises the most pairs wins. An exhibit from the Institute for Building History.
SHOREliner - Pioneer of electric flying
VR-supported exploration of a 3D aircraft model (9-seater). An exhibit from the Institute of Aircraft Design and Lightweight Construction.
Mathematical Campus Walk
Mathematical walks aim to enable schoolchildren to apply mathematics outside the classroom. They offer the opportunity to gain experience in independent mathematising through out-of-school learning.
“360° Interactive Research Site” - Experience research in virtual reality
The “Isodrones 360° Interactive Research Site” allows you to independently explore our research site in the tropical dry forest of Costa Rica, where we have been studying the water uptake strategies of trees since 2018. Immerse yourself in nine interactive scenes with explanatory videos, graphics and visualisations of our research data, learn everything about our work and experience a 360° drone flight! An exhibition by Dr Matthias Beyer.
