Featured Equipment
Wireless Motion Sensor
The Wireless Motion Sensor uses ultrasound to measure the position, velocity, and acceleration of objects.
1.2 m Aluminum Dynamics Track
The Starter Dynamics Track is our 1.2 m aluminum track with a metal scale installed. This is just the track and does not come with end stops or feet.
Smart Cart (Red)
The Smart Cart is the ultimate tool for your physics lab and includes built-in sensors for measuring force, position, velocity, three axes of acceleration, and three axes of rotational velocity. Patent No. 10481173
Many lab activities can be conducted with our Wireless, PASPORT, or even ScienceWorkshop sensors and equipment. For assistance with substituting compatible instruments, contact PASCO Technical Support. We're here to help.
