• SwitchedOnToys – Horizontal traffic lights : The functional lateral traffic light model is a fascinating example of practical STEM learning and hands-on experience. Traffic signal lights are crucial for directing both vehicular and pedestrian traffic at intersections and crossings, using a standard arrangement of red, green, and yellow lights to convey essential directives: red for stop, green for go, and yellow for caution. This model, however, introduces an innovative twist with its lateral design.

• SwitchedOnToys – Earth Month Sun : The motorized orrery featuring the Earth, Moon, and Sun mounted on gears is an excellent example of cost-effective learning and STEM education. This model vividly demonstrates the fundamental aspects of celestial mechanics, including orbits, phases of the moon, eclipses, and seasons.

• SwitchedOnToys – Cable-Stayed Bridge : The cable-stayed bridge model is a fascinating example of innovative bridge design, demonstrating key principles of engineering and STEM learning. This type of bridge features a main girder supported directly by cables connected to towers or pylons, making it a popular choice for long-span structures due to its unique advantages.

• SwitchedOnToys – DIY Aerial Orbit – Satellite Model : Creating a model of an aeronautical orbital satellite is an engaging educational project that provides a hands-on experience in satellite design and space exploration. This easy-to-assemble kit is perfect for STEM learning, allowing you to explore the principles of satellite functionality and its role in modern technology.
