DESCRIPTION
The interactive image scaler software allows users to see macro scale to micro scale over a spectrum of images. Users can explore size scale relative to one and other. The Image Scaler is designed to be employed in a variety of settings – to be easily downloaded and used in classroom settings, shown during presentations, and potentially developed into an unmediated floor model.
