With one red lens and one blue lens, these glasses work the same way as the glasses used in the 1950s for viewing 3D movies. Today they are most popular for viewing anaglyphs (two-color, 3D still images), such as those sent back by the Mars Exploration Rovers Spirit & Opportunity. Can be worn either way (red on the left, blue on the right, or vice versa) so students can experiment with which configuration works best for viewing 3D images and why. Sold in packs of five.

1-PS4-2
Students can conduct investigations showing evidence of illumination from an external source such as the Sun.
1-PS4-3
Students can use this tool to conduct an investigation of how different materials affect the path of a beam of light. |
|
MS-PS4-2
Students can use this tool to develop and use a model to describe how waves are reflected, absorbed, or transmitted through various materials. |
|
HS-PS4-1
Students can use 3-D Glasses to conduct investigations and use mathematical representations to support a claim regarding relationships among the frequency, wavelength, and speed of waves traveling in various media.
