Meet PocketLab G-Force, The Stem Kit On Wheels.

PocketLab G-Force is a toy-sized technology-packed sensorised car that empowers you to measure speed, acceleration, g-forces, and much more. You can create speed contests, design science experiments, and learn about engineering and physics. G-Force packs cutting-edge technology in a rugged car chassis for tons of science fun.

PocketLab G-Force is designed for every kid that grew up reading about science and wished more people would love the thrill of it. It’s for collectors looking endlessly cool cool gadgets. And it’s for the inventors out there who know that supporting projects like these is to be part of something bigger. It’s science with the fun built in.

Features

Speed Racer

How fast are you going? PocketLab G-Force has a miniaturized odometer and speedometer that works just like a real car. The speedometer data transmits wirelessly to your phone, tablet, or computer in real-time.

Plays Well with Others

PocketLab G-Force can race through many types of HotWheels™ and other toy tracks for loops, roller coasters, and high-banked curves.

Cool Data

Crash cars together and measure the g-forces of a collision. PocketLab G-Force has an onboard inertial measurement unit (IMU) for advanced measurements, the same kind of technology used for autonomous driving.

Sparks Creativity

You can attach bumpers, parachutes, and pirate sails to the G-Force car to be creative with how you explore science.

Smooth Ride

Equipped with micro-ball-bearings, precision machined stainless steel axles, and fine-tuned mechanics, this is a lot more than a diecast toy car.

Get Nerdy

PocketLab G-Force is capable of investigating university level science concepts in approachable ways. Who thought you could experiment with simple harmonic motion or three-dimensional kinematics with something that looks like a toy car?
