Demonstrate additive color mixing with vivid light

Bring museum-quality color demonstrations into your classroom with the Color Mixing Projector. This compact, classroom-ready device produces three distinct circles of colored light that can be overlapped in any combination to make color addition clear and intuitive. With conveniently placed control knobs, teachers can precisely adjust each individual color in real time—perfect for exploring how light combines and how our eyes perceive color. Small in size but big in impact (6" × 4.25" × 3.25"), it’s an ideal tool for physics classrooms and visual demonstrations.

The Color Mixing Projector makes the physics of color vivid, interactive, and easy to demonstrate—helping students truly see how light works.

Why Teachers Love the Color Mixing Projector
  • Clear, visual color mixing: Overlapping light circles make additive color mixing easy to see and understand.
  • Precise control: Individual knobs allow smooth adjustment of each color during live demonstrations.
  • Multiple concepts, one tool: Supports color addition, complementary colors, colored shadows, and color fatigue.
  • Compact and classroom-friendly: Small footprint fits easily on a desk or demo table.

What You Can Teach with the Color Mixing Projector

Ideal for elementary through high school physics and physical science:

  • Additive color mixing: Combine red, green, and blue light to form secondary colors and white light.
  • Complementary colors: Explore how colors interact and cancel in additive systems.
  • Colored shadows: Observe how multiple light sources create unexpected shadow colors.
  • Color perception & fatigue: Investigate how the human eye responds to prolonged exposure to color.
  • Light vs. pigment: Contrast additive color mixing with subtractive mixing used in paints and inks.
