Gear artist: transform mechanics into masterpieces!

This amazing gear and drawing kit transforms students into mechanical artists who discover the fascinating intersection between mathematical precision and creative expression. With countless gears at their fingertips, young inventors can create endless geometric shapes, intricate patterns, and mesmerizing designs while learning fundamental mechanical principles.

The real showstopper is the ingenious pantograph build that uses lever mechanics to enable students to perfectly copy drawings, scale handwriting, and reproduce artwork with scientific precision – turning every student into a master duplicator who understands the physics behind mechanical reproduction.

But the creativity doesn't stop with physical creations! The kit's revolutionary AR technology bridges the gap between traditional art and digital innovation through interactive AR cards that work seamlessly with the NEWTON-AR App. Students can transform their hand-drawn gear creations and pantograph copies into stunning digital artwork, bringing their mechanical masterpieces to life in ways that blend traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology.

This comprehensive classroom pack includes 24 complete kits with detailed directions and 5 standards-aligned lessons, ensuring every student becomes both an engineer and an artist while exploring the beautiful mathematical relationships that govern mechanical design and artistic creation.
