Visual Cortex knows that today’s technology has increased dramatically allowing instructors to formulate labs that specifically address the shortcomings of the old stereotypical labs. The resulting labs and equipment are based on visualization technology tools mixed with the tools of the trade of current employers in the areas of science and engineering. These instruments allow students to see linear velocities and the acceleration of moving objects in real-time, see angular velocities and accelerations, and effectively visualize electric and magnetic fields of arbitrary shapes in quasi-real-time. Their solution consists of two parts, the Visualization Station and the High Lift Air Table.

Visual Cortex's new website showcases their Visualization Station and High Lift Air Table. Visual Cortex Instruments is comprised of a group of professors and educators who grew frustrated with standard, antiquated freshman labs which do not have a direct pedagogical value and do not directly probe the core physical concepts that are the foundation of science and engineering. They embarked on a journey to envision what ideal freshman physics, science, and engineering labs would look like. They did this without being bound by current technology and without any pre-concept in our minds. These visualization instruments are the result of that thought process.

Evolve Impact Group built this site using the DotNetNuke content management system, which has many easy to use modules perfect for clients needing to make quick updates without touching much code. Their site was built to be responsive and mobile and tablet friendly thanks to DotNetNuke’s web compatibility functions.
