Algodoo creates a new synergy between science and art

ALGODOO is a unique 2D-simulation software from Algoryx Simulation AB. Algodoo is designed in a playful, cartoony manner, making it a perfect tool for creating interactive scenes. Explore physics, build amazing inventions, design cool games or experiment with Algodoo in your science classes. Algodoo encourages students and children’s own creativity, ability and motivation to construct knowledge while having fun. Making it as entertaining as it is educational. Algodoo is also a perfect aid for children to learn and practice physics at home.

Functionality

With Algodoo you can create simulation scenes using simple drawing tools like boxes, circles, polygons, gears, brushes, planes, ropes and chains. Easily interact with your objects by click and drag, tilt and shake. Edit and make changes by rotating, scaling, moving, cutting or cloning your objects.

Physical elements

You can also add more physics in your simulation like fluids, springs, hinges, motors, thrusters, light rays, tracers, optics and lenses. Algodoo also allows you to explore and play around with different parameters like gravity, friction, restitution, refraction, attraction, etc.

Analyze and visualize

For deeper analysis you can also show graphs or visualize forces, velocities and momentum (only in Algodoo for Education). You can also enhance your visualization by showing X/Y components and angles.

Algobox - Sharing scenes

In Algobox, our scene library with over 50 000 scenes, you can easily save and share your creations with friends or browse and download other user made scenes. Algobox is easily accessed from within Algodoo or from this website under Scenes.

Lesson plans

Algodoo also comes with a built-in lesson library (only included in Algodoo for Education) that enables and encourage collaborative authoring of lessons and lecture material for different key stages in education. Making it easy for you to browse and run lessons from within Algodoo or even create and share your own ones.

Community

With a large and active community, engaging educators, parents and kids you can discuss and share your thoughts about Algodoo.
