Time-of-flight Sensors
Students will learn about time-of-flight sensors and the theory behind how they work. They will then reconstruct a course using only Ari’s distance readings.
Potential Energy in Roller Coasters
Students will use the Ari Distance application to measure the height of a marble at the top of a constructed roller coaster track. Using the measurement, students will calculate the gravitational potential energy of the marble as it begins its descen
Self-driving Cars
Students will learn how self-driving cars create a visual representation of the world. Then, using Ari’s Time-of-flight sensor, students will create a point cloud of Ari’s surroundings.
Pythagorean Theorem with Ari
Students will learn to use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the unknown side lengths of right triangles using Ari.
Meet Ari: Hardware, Software, and Apps (5-12)

Rolling for Speed
Students will use the Ari Distance App to construct inclined planes of different lengths and heights with classroom materials. Using their constructed inclined planes, students will time a ball rolling down each plane and calculate its average speed.
Area and Perimeter Everywhere
Students will use the Ari Distance app to measure the side lengths of rectangular shapes and calculate the shapes’ areas and perimeters. Students will then measure rectangular classroom objects to calculate their areas and perimeters.
Stealth Object Design
Students will learn about stealth technology and different techniques for making objects difficult to detect. They will then examine materials of various properties to see how well they work with Ari’s distance sensor.
Ari’s Pollination Garden
Put on your botanist hat and create an interactive flower garden to explore how animals and insects help with pollination! Program Ari to mimic a pollinator’s journey, track which flowers were visited, and use the data collected to compare your resul
