Description:
Hugo and Marcos have to finish an assignment before going to the football match. At first they don’t seem to be very motivated, until they find a program called Nanocam with a microscope simulator on the Internet. What started off as a somewhat compulsory task soon turns into a fascinating trip that captivates both completely and lets them discover worlds that were unknown before!
Nanocam shrinks you down to the size of an insect and flies you through the eye of a needle. It offers a unique, motivating, didactic, and funny approach to living things that has never been seen like this before.
The images of an electron microscope generated with the latest 3D animation technology invite us on a joyride into each kingdom of living things: explore the kingdoms of bacteria, protists and their stunning mechanism of motility, the amazing structure of fungi, the specializations of plants, and the incredible complexity of the animal kingdom.
