XReadyLab VR Physics: Lenses Lab

What students do in VR:

Build optical systems using converging and diverging lenses

Adjust object distance and lens position → observe changes in image formation in real time

Measure object distance (u) and image distance (v) → calculate focal length

Modify lens configurations → observe image clarity, size, and orientation

What students learn:

Image formation by lenses (real and virtual images)

Focal length and its relationship to object and image distance

Lens formula and optical calculations

Behavior of converging (convex) and diverging (concave) lenses

Relationship between lens position and image properties (size, clarity, orientation)
