Experimental science accessible to all
The best way to learn science is to experiment on the real world.
FizziQ apps transform smartphones, tablets, computers and microcontrollers into scientific instruments to conduct experimental approaches in class, at home or in the field. Four complementary solutions, one mission: making scientific experimentation accessible to all.
Four tools, one laboratory
Each FizziQ solution uses equipment that the classroom already has or can acquire at low cost. Choose based on student age and available equipment.

The best way to learn science is to experiment on the real world. It is also a powerful lever to spark student interest, foster their engagement and reduce inequalities in science education. To see what this looks like in practice, read our guide Doing Physics with a Smartphone.
Scientific equipment remains expensive
Laboratory measurement instruments are costly and not very portable. Their actual use in class — and even more so in the field — is limited, even though experimentation stimulates curiosity and anchors concepts.
Use tools already available
Smartphones, tablets, computers and commercial sensors can become the foundation of a genuine experimental approach. FizziQ transforms them into reliable and immediately usable scientific instruments for students.
Free, for everyone, with teachers
All our tools are free, without advertising and without data collection. They are designed with and for teachers, from elementary to university, in partnership with the La main à la pâte Foundation.
Dozens of instruments, already at your fingertips
Accelerometer, sound level meter, colorimeter, GPS, barometer… The components of everyday devices become real instruments to observe, measure and understand concrete scientific phenomena, and FizziQ Connect extends the range with commercial external sensors. Our complete guide to smartphone sensors details each of these components and how to turn them into scientific instruments.
Classroom-tested protocols, ready to use
Teachers create their own protocols or choose from dozens of experiments designed by the educational community, publishers and experts from the La main à la pâte Foundation. All are free.
