Magnetic levitation has not quite revolutionized the world of transit the way some of us might have hoped. It has, however, proven useful to [mrdiytechmagic], who has put the technology to grand ...

Ultrasonic levitation — the practice of creating a standing wave between two ultrasonic sources and positioning lightweight objects such that they can float in the pressure minimums between them ...

An article published in the journal Optica describes the development of a new experimental device that explores the boundary ...

Witness the incredible reaction of ferrofluid in quantum levitation at extreme temperatures. This experiment showcases the power of magnetism and how materials behave under intense conditions. From ...

Tractor beams using light or sound have existed for a while. Lasers can be used to create optical tweezers, a development that got Arthur Ashkin a Nobel prize in 2018 – so it is possible to move and ...

By combining levitation, insulation, and real-time feedback, Prof. Twamley's team is pushing the boundaries of what is achievable in materials science and sensor technology.

Stable levitation The NYU team performed experiments on robotic hula hoopers using gyrating bodies with various shapes. Overlaid video frames reveal that an hourglass-shaped body successfully hula ...
