syGlass Pro

Immersive learning with 3D scientific & clinical image data

Guided learning featuring real CT scans, MRI data, and 3D microscopy, powered by the same research-grade tools scientists use in the lab.

Why syGlass Pro?

Scientific experiences students may not encounter until college or graduate school.

With syGlass, students explore authentic CT scans, MRI data, and advanced imaging, connecting classroom concepts to real scientific research.

By bringing research-inspired investigations into everyday instruction, syGlass helps students see themselves as more than learners: they become investigators, problem solvers, and emerging scientists.

Professional development

Hands-on training, lesson planning, and ongoing support as teachers discover new tools.

Teacher/Student Dashboard

Teachers assign lessons, review assessment results, monitor student progress, and manage usage during class. Students access their files to reflect on their learning and communicate their discoveries.

Technology support

Support and documentation during the implementation process, and on-demand troubleshooting throughout.

Collaboration

From scientific discovery to scientific communication

syGlass empowers students to investigate complex scientific data, develop evidence-based explanations, and share their findings through immersive presentations and interactive experiences. Students learn the critical thinking, collaboration, and science communication skills needed to advance to the next level.

Multiplayer collaboration

Explore with collaborators anywhere in the world with online multiplayer, or easily host a multiplayer room on your local network. Such a great way to make scientists accessible to each classroom!

Narrative experiences

Students and teachers can record virtual lectures and explainers for playback in VR, or export them as stereoscopic or traditional video.

Participatory science

Contribute to real research projects via syGlass, as students in Longmont, Colorado did with neuroscience researchers at the University of South Florida.
