interactive displays + Exhibits
Your vision. Pedal powered.
Heart Race
Children’s Museum of Stockton, CA
This interactive educational display teaches how exercise helps move blood through the body faster. As participants pedal the exercise bike generators, they race to illuminate the pathways, representing the circulatory system, on the screen. The faster they ride, the quicker the bloodstream “flows,” turning an important health concept into an exciting, hands-on experience. The entire system is fully human-powered, requiring no external electricity, so participants power both the display and the learning experience themselves. Perfect for science centers, museums, and STEM programs.
Perfect for science centers and museums that guests of all ages will love.
POWER RACER
Ultimate Model
STEM Interactive Educational display
Introducing the all new, Power Racer Ultimate Model! This is a hands-on, energy-generating machine, and a full science and sustainability experience. This Display can come with two of our Exercise Bike Generators, two hand crank Human Power Generators, or one of each. It is decked out with 2 phone charging docks, USB ports/AC adapter, LED and incandescent bulbs, our WattsView sensor with power monitoring software, and the crowd favorite: ping pong balls floating in the air with generated wind power!
Perfect for science centers, museums, lobbies, classrooms, and events. Learn, charge, and have fun, all in one ride!
Light & Lift
A Solar Stem Experience
This interactive educational display is used around the world to teach what alternative energy is, and introduces Bernoulli's Principle, how a ball can be suspended in a column of air. As kids stand in front of the solar panel, the watts displayed beneath each light bulb will lower, ultimately demonstrating that when less solar power is available, the lights cannot stay fully lit.
HOVER & DROP
AN INDOOR SOLAR REACTION DISPLAY
This indoor solar Bernoulli box and it combines the power of light, energy conversion, and fluid dynamics all in one hands-on educational display. Although it still uses sunlight to power the fans, it's main feature is to use LED light so it may be used in a controlled, indoor setting. This is the best example of Bernoulli's Principle, how a ball can be suspended in a column of air. This display is perfect for science centers, museums, lobbies, galleries, or traveling exhibits.
Human Power station
Power Race while banking energy
The Human Power Station can be used to power anything you can think of: Concerts, lighting, sound systems, griddles, popcorn machines, blenders, movie projectors, misting systems, and so much more. You can connect up to 20 bikes/hand cranks/solar panels at a time, and connect up to 10 POWER STATIONS TOGETHER which is equivalent to 10,000 watts of continuous power, or 40,000 watts of on demand power. Soon we will be powering a whole concert, just like Coldplay does!!!!
Ikea
Human Power generator
with EcoGlow - 3 light Display
At the IKEA in Burbank, we have set up the Human Power Generator with hand pegs (foot pedals also available). It is connected to our EcoGlow light display that allows customers to see for themselves how much more energy traditional incandescent light bulbs use. Ikea promotes their LED bulbs throughout their store, so they are wanting to teach their customers why LED is a better choice for the environment.
Arizona Science Center
Dual interactive
Exercise Bike Generators
Our exercise bike generators at the Arizona Science Center in Phoenix are set up as a dual interactive educational display. You can really feel the difference it takes to power LED, CFL, and incandescent light bulbs.
LED bulbs need 10 watts of energy, CFL bulbs need around 20 watts, and incandescent bulbs need 60 watts! That bulb takes much more pedaling power to light up.
Discovery Center Museum
Rockford, IL
This interactive display provides children with the unique experience of generating electricity and then selecting which appliances in the home to power up. The hair drier and blender are the most difficult item giving the children a very high resistance to work against.
Energy in Action
Mobile interactive exhibit, CT
This is our Human Power Generator in action. Energize Connecticut has a mobile exhibit that allows students to learn how to “make decisions that will not only manage energy, but will help the planet, too.” As they crank the handles, they can actually feel the difference in energy between powering an incandescent bulb and an LED bulb.
Oregon Zoo
Portland, Or
There is an amazing Polar Bear Exhibit at The Oregon Zoo in Portland. The Human Power Generators give guests the impression of how hard it is to for polar bears to swim when hunting for food, versus traveling by walking on ice. They use about 3 times more energy swimming, than they do walking. So we used our Human Power Generators to design an interactive display that allows users to feel the difference that polar bears exert while walking vs. swimming. It is much harder to turn the hand cranks on the “swimming” side.
This is such a fun and interactive way to learn, and so far, the guests have been on the Human Power Generators non-stop!
Diamond Backs Game
Phoenix, az
This is our 12 Way Comparison Light Box display and 300 Watt Generator. This can be set up for any event. It’s a fun way to show how much energy is needed to light multiple light bulbs. The faster you pedal, the more Watts you put out. Everyone gets a kick out of trying it!
Pedal Vision
Powering TV + Video Games
Sherrif Joe Arpaio of Phoenix, AZ implemented our exercise bike generators in Tent City Prison so that the must pedal if they want to watch TV.
This system allows your kids to power up a gaming console such as Xbox, WII, or Playstation up to 200 Watts! Kids will spend hours exercising instead of just sitting all day while playing video games or watching TV
