It’s time for everyone’s favorite game: speculative engineering! An anonymous reader wrote to our tips line asking how the levitation system of the STORY clock is accomplished. We took a look and can ...

Acoustic levitation employs high-frequency sound waves to suspend objects without physical contact, presenting a viable alternative to traditional mechanical handling methods. At its core, this ...

Magnetic levitation is a beautiful thing to watch. Seeing small objects wobble about while seemingly hovering in thin air never gets old. If you want something suitably distracting in this vein for ...

Advances in technology have led to the miniaturization of many mechanical, electronic, chemical and biomedical products, and with that, an evolution in the way these tiny components and parts are ...

In 2018 we have almost become jaded by levitating objects. You name it and there's probably a levitating iteration on the market: turntables, Bluetooth speakers, cameras, lightbulbs, clocks, and even ...

Recently, I finished another simple version of my electromagnetic levitation demo device that levitates a small object under an electromagnet. What makes it different from my earlier model is the ...

The transportation landscape is experiencing a remarkable shift with the emergence of maglev technology. These magnetic levitation trains hover above their tracks using powerful magnets, eliminating ...

A newly discovered process may help explain a debated mystery on how land features on Mars are formed without significant amount of water on the Red Planet. Researchers are already aware the the ...
