Light Shot - Transmission and Refraction of Light

Light usually travels in straight lines but did you know that you can bend it using different materials? In this game, you will use a light ray to shoot and refract light. Your player will be transported to wherever her ray goes. As you play, you'll learn about how different materials bend light in different ways. Are you bright enough for this puzzle?

Game of Light

It's the game of light! Step right up and line up your reflectors and refractors and get the light to the appropriate color receivers. Open up gates to help get to some of the receivers and be prepared for the level that goes invisible. Make sure you track the light you are sending to the receivers too. So much to manage with so little time!

Gali's Lab - Refraction of Light

Welcome to Gali's Lab, a forensic science laboratory, where you will be the detective. Your first case involves detecting real stones from fake ones. You will learn detailed information about light and refraction. You will then you put your skills to the test by using a light refraction machine to calculate the refractive index and compare it to the known materials in the data base.
