Sodaplay currently consists of two tools, sodarace and sodaconstructor. In sodarace, robots created by both humans and Artificial Intelligences race against each other over a variety of simulated terrains to determine how human creativity measures up against the best of machine learning. Sodaconstructor has two main modes, 1) "simulate" to animate and play with a model or. 2) "construct" to stop the animation so that you may add new masses and springs.

As the creators of this website say "We created this site to be a friendly, non-technical place for you to come and "play" with the laws of physics for a while." For Elementary School teachers, this gives you ways to better explain the physics of the world around us. Middle School and High school students can try the different simulations, including Sound, Making your Jump Shot, and Zero G. Illustrations will appeal to students as something they could accomplish, and the explanations let everyone gain a better understanding of physics.
