3D virtual science labs for schools

Step inside a real chemistry, physics and biology lab.

Scroll, and you're at the bench — the same view a student gets in the app.

Light a wooden splint at the burner and bring the flame to the balloon filled with hydrogen gas.
Fit the balloon over the mouth of the conical flask.
Place two pieces of zinc in the conical flask filled with concentrated hydrochloric acid.
Light a wooden splint and bring the flame to the mouth of the tube.
Measure 10 mL of 3 M hydrochloric acid and add it to the test tube.
Place two pieces of zinc in the test tube.

Reaction of metals with hydrochloric acid

Place two pieces of zinc in the test tube.

OBSERVATION

Zinc is a metal: grey and solid. By itself in the tube nothing happens to it. It needs something to react with.

The labs

Pick a room. Every one is fully equipped.

Each subject has a room of its own, lit like a real lab, with the student's bench at the front.

The chemistry lab in 3D
2 experiments

Chemistry

Metals, acids, burners and glassware, set out at the student's bench.

The physics lab in 3D
1 experiment

Physics

A free-fall apparatus, a timer and a ruler, with every reading recorded.

The biology lab in 3D
1 experiment

Biology

Samples, droppers and dishes for reading the type of a blood sample.

The Solar System in 3D
1 exploration

Explore

Leave the bench and fly between the Sun, the planets and the dwarf planets.

Real results

Worked out by the student.

Physics · Free Fall

g = 9.80 m/s²

Worked out by the student from the slope of the line through their own readings. The accepted value is 9.81 m/s².

The Calculations window in Free Fall: the readings, the graph with the slope drawn between two points, and g = 2 × 4.90 = 9.80 m/s².
Water Electrolysis: the two tubes over the electrodes and the readings card showing 10.0 mL of hydrogen, 5.0 mL of oxygen, 2.0 : 1.
Blood Test: the results card with + under Anti-A, Anti-B and Anti-D, the type AB+ chosen, and “Correct: this blood is AB+.”

How it works

Every move is the student's own

Four things a student does in every experiment, filmed in the app. The white rings show where they touched.

Pick it up, pour it in

Explore

Then leave the lab behind.

From the Milky Way to the Sun.

Fly between the Sun, the planets and the dwarf planets, compare their sizes, days and years, see real NASA photographs and stand on Mars in a 360° panorama.

Where it runs

Built for the board at the front of the class.

Most classrooms already teach from an interactive screen. Gnosis Labs is made for it first, so the whole class can follow one experiment together. The same labs run on tablets, phones and PCs.

For schools

Made for the classroom.

Each experiment explains itself: in two languages, out loud, with help on hand and questions at the end.

Reaction of metals with hydrochloric acid

Place two pieces of zinc in the test tube.

English and Arabic

Every word on the screen and every spoken instruction comes in both languages. Arabic reads right to left.

A voice for every step

What each experiment is for, each step and what each result means are read aloud.

Help when a student is stuck

The lab points out the piece of equipment the step needs.

An exercise after each experiment

Questions on what the student has just seen and measured.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

What is Gnosis Labs?

Gnosis Labs is a set of 3D virtual science labs for schools. Students step into a fully equipped chemistry, physics or biology lab and set up, run and measure each experiment themselves.

Which experiments are included?

Chemistry has the reaction of metals with hydrochloric acid and water electrolysis. Physics has free fall, and biology has the blood test. Students can also fly through the Solar System in 3D. More experiments are on the way.

Which devices does it run on?

It is made first for interactive classroom screens, so the whole class can follow one experiment together. The same labs run on tablets, phones and PCs, with touch on every device and mouse and keyboard on PC.

Is it available in Arabic?

Yes. Every word on the screen and every spoken instruction comes in both Arabic and English, and Arabic reads right to left.

What does a student do in an experiment?

They pick up the equipment, pour, switch on and measure for themselves. Each reading goes into a table and the graph is drawn from the readings. When a student is stuck, the lab points out the equipment the step needs, and each experiment ends with an exercise.

How can my school try it?

Request a demo with the form on this page, or write to support@gnosislabs.net, and we will arrange a demo of the labs for you and your teachers.
