Project: Light and Optics: Building the impossible kaleidoscope
In this section we will build a toy called the Polariscope. As you can see from the above photograph, the Polariscope makes patterns of beautiful colors, somewhat like a kaleidoscope, but by an entirely different mechanism. Learn more in this lesson project by Sci-toys. https://sci-toys.com/scitoys/scitoys/light/polariscope.html

Video: UV Camera Shows 10 Fruits in an Amazing New Way
For this UV video, the subject is illuminated directly by UV emitting lamps . UV filter is placed on the lens, which allows ultraviolet light to pass and which absorbs or blocks all visible and infrared light. UV filters are made from special colored glass and may be coated or sandwiched with other filter glass…

Video: Art With Polarization
In this project we will make beautiful pieces of art that can change their colour when you move them. We do this by using the phenomenon called polarisation – this is a property that light waves exhibit. So, in the end, you will not only use your creativity but also learn something about the physics…
