Snake Pattern Pendulums
[Oscillation • Wave Patterns]
As the pendulums move together, they create captivating wave-like patterns that resemble the motion of a snake, revealing the hidden beauty of mathematics and physics.
[02]
Floating Head Illusion
[Optical Illusion]
Step into a fascinating optical illusion where a floating head appears to defy reality. This interactive exhibit demonstrates how perspective and visual perception can create extraordinary effects.
[03]
LIFT YOURSELF
[Pulley System]
By pulling on the rope, visitors can experience how pulleys change the direction of force and reduce the effort required to raise a load.
[04]
Human Digestive System Model
[Human Anatomy]
By combining anatomical models with clear visual explanations, it helps visitors appreciate the science behind digestion and the importance of maintaining a healthy digestive system.
[05]
Colour Mixer
[Light Spectrum]
Through interactive controls, visitors can experiment with different colour combinations and observe how variations in light intensity influence the colours we perceive.

Vanishing Man
[Mirrors ,Visual Perception]
As visitors step into the exhibit, portions of their body appear to disappear, revealing how light reflection and perception influence what we see.
[07]
Illusion with a Ring
[Mechanics & Illusions]
Through clever engineering and scientific principles, a metal ring appears to pass through obstacles that seem impossible to cross, demonstrating that appearances can often be misleading.
[08]
Plasma Globe
[Plasma Physics]
The Plasma Globe allows visitors to observe beautiful streams of ionized gas created by high-voltage electrical energy.
[09]
Acrobatic Stick
[Angular Momentum]
Acrobatic Stick demonstrates how rotational movement and balance work together to maintain stability. As the stick rotates, it appears to perform seemingly impossible movements while remaining balanced.
[10]
Bird in a Cage
[Persistence of Vision]
Bird in a Cage exhibit demonstrates persistence of vision, the phenomenon that allows our eyes and brain to combine rapidly changing images into a single picture.

Funny Mirror
Optics & Reflection
Funny Mirrors exhibit demonstrates how curved mirrors distort reflections by changing the path of light. Depending on the mirror's shape, visitors may appear taller, shorter, wider, or even upside down.
[12]
Gear Mechanism
[Mechanical Engineering]
Visitors can observe how changing gear sizes affects speed, torque, and direction of rotation—principles used in everything from bicycles to industrial machinery.
[13]
Pedal Power
[Energy Conversion]
This interactive exhibit provides a hands-on understanding of energy conversion and highlights the importance of sustainable energy solutions.
[14]
Infinite Well
[Optical Illusion]
Infinite Well creates the illusion of a bottomless pit using mirrors and strategically placed lights. Although the structure is only a short distance deep, repeated reflections produce the appearance of an endless descent.
[15]
Rolling Balls & Staircase
[Physics & Motion]
Gravity Challenge compares different paths taken by rolling objects to demonstrate how gravity, acceleration, and the shape of a track affect travel time.
"The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing."
— Albert Einstein

Praxinoscope
[Persistence of Vision]
The Praxinoscope is one of the earliest animation devices, demonstrating how a sequence of still images can create the illusion of continuous motion.
[17]
Human Nervous System Model
[Nervous System]
The Human Nervous System Model provides a detailed representation of the body's complex network of nerves.
[18]
Pythagoras' Theorem
[Geometry]
By exploring geometric shapes and their relationships, visitors gain a practical understanding of one of the most important theorems in mathematics.
[19]
Funny Tap
[Fluid Dynamics]
Funny Tap cleverly disguise the water supply, creating a captivating display that challenges the viewer's perception while demonstrating the fascinating interaction between engineering, fluid flow, and optical illusion.
[20]
Parabolic Reflector
[Sound Waves]
Even a soft whisper spoken toward one dish can be clearly heard at the opposite dish, illustrating how parabolic reflectors collect and direct sound energy.
"Cultivation of mind should be the ultimate aim of human existence."
