Ardusat Brings “I Built This!” Moments to Your Classroom
Ardusat is a learning experience platform combining student-friendly hardware kits with web-based lesson plans.
In each experiment, students use Ardusat to build, code, and show off what they’re learning. This isn’t a run-of-the-mill lecture or a project that takes two months. Every single experiment can be done in a class period or two, giving your students plenty of building experience.
We’ve designed our experiments around NGSS and other educational standards. But our hands-on approach to learning STEM does more than meet rigorous standards. It inspires students to understand how these subjects work in the real world. And when students get excited, teachers win.
What is Ardusat?
Our sensor kits and software do more than teach science, technology, engineering, and math. They help students learn to think like scientists, developing critical scientific literacy skills they’ll need throughout their lives.
eHub
Our web-based home for our learning experiences. Teachers can browse through pre-designed labs, personalize them, or publish their own. Our classroom management features save you time, so you can focus on inspiring students to become explorers, right in the classroom. We’re constantly adding new lessons and experiments aligned with NGSS and other educational standards.
Sensor Kit
Based on open-source Arduino hardware, our Sensor Kit includes everything you need to run eHub experiments. Its high durability makes it ideal for classroom environments. And its range of sensors means it can be used again and again for different experiments, giving it great value.
Educator Support
Need help? We’re happy to support your use of Ardusat anyway we can. Ardusat also provides open learning resources to ignite your students’ imaginations and instill an excitement for science, engineering, math, and technology.
We also provide Professional Development to help educators adapt to the latest education standards.
“These are the best days of the year.”
Educators love Ardusat – and for good reason. Ardusat excites students and makes learning science, technology, engineering, and math fun.
Plus, our kits and online experiments are teacher-friendly, making them ideal for classroom use. In fact, once teachers have Ardusat in the classroom, they can run as many experiments as they want, making it a great learning investment.
Make every experiment “the best day of the year” with Ardusat.

2. Choose a Learning Experience
3. Follow Step-by-Step Lesson Plans
4. Analyze & Share
Flexible Learning Experiences in Your Classroom
Our eHub offers dozens of lessons organized by grade, subject, and more. Here are just a few samples.
Science Experiments
Our science experiments promote scientific inquiry and help students learn how to think like scientists. We’ve designed our experiments around current education science standards and practices, including:
- Asking questions, then analyzing and interpreting data
- Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information
Sample Science Experiments
Does the time of year affect the amount of light that can get into a house?
Which sunglasses do the best job of blocking UV light?
Sample Technology Experiments
Which sunglasses do the best job of blocking UV light?
Does the time of year affect the amount of light that can get into a house?
Technology Experiments
As more school districts move to incorporate coding and other technology skills into their curriculums, educators need simple-to-implement resources. Our technology experiments make this exciting for students and accessible for teachers.
Our experiments teach students these tech standards:
- Developing and using models
- Analyzing and interpreting data
- Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information
Engineering Lessons
Our science experiments promote scientific inquiry and help students learn how to think like scientists. We’ve designed our experiments around current education standards and practices, including:
- Defining problems
- Developing and using models
- Using mathematics and computational thinking
Sample Engineering Experiments
Does the time of year affect the amount of light that can get into a house?
Build a laser target practice game.
Sample Math Experiments
Which sunglasses do the best job of blocking UV light?
Does the time of year affect the amount of light that can get into a house?
Math Lessons
As more school districts move to incorporate coding and other technology skills into their curriculums, educators need simple-to-implement resources. Our technology experiments make this exciting for students and accessible for teachers.
Our experiments teach students these tech standards:
- Asking questions (for science) and defining problems (for engineering)
- Developing and using models
- Planning and carrying out investigations
- Analyzing and interpreting data
- Using mathematics and computational thinking
- Constructing explanations (for science)
- Engaging in argument from evidence
- Obtaining, evaluating, and communicating information

What Educators Say
“I love the easy-to-use, interactive labs! Our high-altitude balloon experiment showed my class how to investigate changes in temperature vs. altitude from 90,000 feet over Colorado Springs, Colorado. I’ve never seen my students so engaged!”

Which Option is the Right Fit for You?
Classroom Launch Pack
Our Classroom Launch Pack provides teachers with resources that enable their students to conduct hands-on experiments using sensors, providing them with a one-of-a-kind classroom experience. The Sensor Kit help students learn the fundamentals of remote sensing and prepares them to run an annual experiment using the same sensors on satellites. Teachers will be supported by the Ardusat Support Team to ensure successful implementation in their classroom.
A Launch Pack contains the following:
- 10 Space Kits (ideal for a classroom of up to 35 students, divided into teams)
- 1 DemoSat
- Wireless Kit
- 1 Year Site License for Ardusat eHub
- Training, Support, PD
- Annual Space Experiment
Individual Sensor Kit
The Ardusat Sensor Kit is a great way to get started with basic Arduino programming and learn about the sensors sent into orbit on Spire CubeSats. It’s perfect for parents looking to get their kids started coding, engineering, making/DIYing, and more.
Ardusat provides beginner-level experiments and ideas, but really the possibilities are endless on what you want to measure and data you want to collect on earth. This kit is ideal for hobbyists ages 12+.
The Space Kit includes:
- Arduino
- Ardusat Sensor Board (Luminosity Sensor, Temperature Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Magnetometer, Barometer, Ultra Violet Light Sensor, Infrared Thermopile, RGB Sensor)
