SideFX EDU Toolset

The SideFX EDU Toolset is designed to leverage the power of Houdini to visualize concepts and build interdisciplinary connections in subjects like:

Math     |     Physics     |     Computer Science    |     Digital & Creative Arts     |     3D Animation & VFX

These tools allow teachers and students to see the results of math and science concepts, and to interactively play around with these tools to see how changes in inputs will drive different visual outcomes. With the SideFX EDU toolset, instructors can create a more engaging classroom environment.
