Making Science Interactive

Traditional science education relies on static textbook diagrams and 2D illustrations. But science happens in three dimensions. I built 3D Science Lab to make STEM education immersive — allowing students to interact with experiments in 3D, rotate models, zoom in on details, and truly understand the science behind what they see.

What is 3D Science Lab?

3D Science Lab is an interactive web platform featuring 40+ 3D science experiments across four core disciplines:

  • Physics — mechanics, optics, waves, electricity

  • Chemistry — molecular structures, reactions, periodic table in 3D

  • Biology — cell structures, organ systems, DNA

  • Mathematics — geometric shapes, functions, calculus visualizations

Key Features

🧪 40+ Interactive Experiments

Each experiment is fully interactive — drag, rotate, zoom, and manipulate to explore scientific concepts hands-on.

🎮 Immersive 3D Rendering

Built with Three.js and React Three Fiber, the platform delivers smooth, WebGL-powered 3D graphics directly in the browser. No downloads, no plugins.

📱 Responsive Design

Works on desktop, tablet, and mobile. Science class shouldn't require a specific device.

⚡ Fast Performance

Optimized rendering pipeline ensures smooth 60fps interactions even with complex 3D models.

Tech Stack

  • Framework: Next.js 15

  • 3D Engine: Three.js + React Three Fiber

  • Language: TypeScript

  • Animation: Framer Motion

  • UI Controls: Leva

  • Post-processing: React Three Postprocessing

Why It Matters

Studies show that interactive 3D learning improves retention by up to 80% compared to traditional 2D methods. 3D Science Lab brings this capability to every student with a browser — no expensive lab equipment needed.
