Equator Software, a new company formed by the co-founder of ON Technology, has debuted its first software title dubbed Equator. The software allows high school and college-level physics students to easily navigate mathematical problems with its integrated word processor-like math editor, drawing palette, searchable formula reference library, algebra generator and drag-and-drop calculator. Equator records each step of students' work, along with figures and comments, collects all problems of an assignment into a single file and then generates homework-quality documents that can be printed.

With the "Math Symbols" feature, students can format mathematical expressions directly from the keyboard. For example, to type the letter pi, simply type "P - I - spacebar." The reference library offers a bank of standard equations and constants that can be inserted into the current document. The tool can also perform most algebra transformations using drag-and-drop. For example, to divide both sides of Area = πr2 by π, students double-click π to select it, then drag it to the opposite side of the equation.
