WaveForge

Sound is a wave you can see. Shape it on an oscilloscope, tune a string until it resonates, and learn how frequency, amplitude, and standing waves work — one hands-on step at a time.

Wave labs

Two hands-on surfaces — no microphone needed. Shape a wave and read its pitch and loudness, or tune a string until it sings.

Oscilloscope Lab ✨ new Pick a waveform, raise its pitch, make it louder — and watch the trace change on a real oscilloscope display. Then play “Match the Wave.” Resonance Tuner ✨ new See a standing wave with its nodes and antinodes, count the still points, and tune a string longer/shorter and tighter/looser to hit a target note. Interference Lab ✨ new Two waves meet — before you look, predict whether they add up, cancel out, or make a slow beat. Then watch the combined wave appear.

Play together

A quick wave-physics face-off, or follow the whole journey through every kit.

Wave Duel (pass-and-play) 2–4 players take turns on one device — same questions, highest first-try score wins. A quick acoustics face-off. Wave Journey — follow the map → A path through all 16 kits. Clear each stop, then move on — see how far you’ve come. Mixed practice — revisit what you’ve learned A short round that shuffles questions from the kits you’ve played, brought back when they’re ready to review. Great for making it stick. WaveForge Sprint — a calm speed round → Once you’ve mastered a few kits, race your OWN best on what you already know. Timer optional, no penalty for a miss.

Practice the concepts

16 kits from wave basics through sound, light, and the electromagnetic spectrum — a short round of questions with a hint whenever you get stuck. Your progress stays on this device.
