About this Simulation

This simulation enables students to investigate light polarization using an Android device's built-in camera and light sensor. By adjusting analyzer angles and measuring light intensity changes, learners explore how polarized light behaves when passing through optical filters and observe real-time intensity variations.

Learning objectives: Understand the principles of light polarization and Malus's Law | Measure and analyze the relationship between analyzer angle and transmitted light intensity | Apply camera and sensor data to conduct quantitative optical experiments
