Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

Celebrate Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month

This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.

My Project

This science project aims to help students understand the concept of heat by using a thermal imaging camera. Thermal imaging cameras detect infrared radiation (heat) and convert it into an image that visually represents temperature differences. Using this technology, students can visualize heat distribution and better understand thermal properties and energy transfer. Using a thermal imaging camera, students can visually explore and understand the principles of heat and temperature, making abstract concepts more tangible and engaging. This project teaches scientific principles and introduces students to modern technology and its practical applications.
