Gesture · Wave Conductor

Shape waves with your hands and hear them overlap.

Each hand is a wave source. One hand makes a wave, two hands reveal interference: where crests meet it turns bright and loud, where crest meets trough they cancel. You see the pattern and hear the beating.

How it works.

Hold one or two hands in front of the camera. Position sets the source, height sets the wavelength, an open hand sets the amplitude. A fist freezes the pattern so you can study it calmly.

What you learn.

Wavelength, amplitude and frequency can be felt one at a time. With two sources you get interference, the same principle as the double slit. Cancellation appears as a calm, dark zone and is audible as beating.

For parents and teachers

The camera stays on the device. No images uploaded, no data collected, no account needed. Without a webcam the cursor conducts a wave. Aligns with science curricula on waves, sound and light.
