Atom Visualizer brings science home and to the classroom - what is everything around us made of?
Atom Visualizer is a valuable pedagogical tool that helps to begin answering this question, and is simple enough to be used even in kindergarten.

Many of us understand the basic structure of an atom: a nucleus containing protons and neutrons, surrounded by orbiting electrons. But how are those electrons organized? How do they move? What do they look like?

Scientists and science teachers use two common models to visualize atoms and answer these questions.

The Bohr model presents the atom as a shell containing a nucleus and the electrons in orbit around it. This helps us understand the energy level of electrons and how they are organized in relation to the nucleus.

The quantum mechanical model presents the atom as an electron cloud. This helps us understand the possible location of the electrons in relation to the nucleus.

Atom Visualizer uses Augmented Reality to create 3D animated visualizations of both these models of any atom in real space, just by using your camera.

Launching the app starts your camera.
Tap the Plus button and choose any of the 118 elements in the periodic table to create a 3D animated atomic model.
Place the atom wherever you want it in real space and view it through your screen.
Pause or adjust the electron animation speed with the slider.
Switch between 3D animated visualization of atoms with the Bohr model - a nucleus with orbiting electrons, or the quantum mechanical model - complete with animated random electron cloud.
Learn more about the elements through the Wikipedia links.

Atom Visualizer was designed and built in just eight weeks by Jonathan Barndt using Electrolyte Engine™ during his National Science Foundation STEP 2017 internship at Signal Garden, as part of the NSF STEM Talent Expansion Program. Jonathan was mentored in Signal Garden by Dylan Hart (lead engineer of Signal Mapper for Google Tango) and Omar Shaikh (lead engineer of Solar Simulator for Google Tango).
Jonathan studies Computer Science at the University of New Mexico.
