Exhibit Summary
The Secret of Snowflakes is a Interactive interactive exhibit in the Kids' Zone category, designed for science centers, children’s museums, discovery centers, STEM learning centers and family entertainment centers. Built as a hands-on, mechanical & electromechanical display, it turns an abstract scientific concept into direct, interactive visitor exploration, and is engineered for durable, low-maintenance, high-traffic gallery use.
Scientific Principle
The exhibition allows the audience to grasp how snowflakes are formed via electromechanical interaction and multimedia interaction, and cultivate their mathematical logical thinking and natural cognition.
Operation
The displays consist of computers, projectors, cameras, assembly blocks, modeling platforms, kaleidoscopes, electronic control systems, etc. The audience took out the splicing blocks from the stage and pieced together one-sixth of the snowflake. Keep the spliced puzzle pieces without moving for 3 seconds, and the scanner will automatically capture the pattern signal and send it to the computer for pattern analysis. The analyzed snowflake pattern is projected onto the exhibition wall via a projector. Viewers can also watch the kaleidoscope and rotate it to enjoy the beautiful transformations of the shapes. Snowflakes are formed when water vapor in the air condenses. Under normal circumstances, water vapor condenses into water first and then freezes. Snowflakes are formed directly from water vapor condensation. It looks like the snowflakes are white. In fact, snow is ice crystals, and ice crystals are colorless and transparent. But each side of it is like a small mirror, and its ability to reflect light is very strong, so it appears white. The largest diameter of snowflakes is more than 2 mm. The common heavy snow we view is the kind of snow that seems to be formed when many snowflakes stick together during the falling process.
