The part that has everyone so excited is a levitating orb that makes a circuit around the face ... it seems you can buy a magnetic levitation device which exhibits similar properties.

Two German physicists have reimagined how to create powerful and uniform magnetic fields using compact permanent magnets. By overcoming the limitations of the well-known Halbach array, which works ...

(Courtesy: R Bjørk) Magnetic levitation is already employed in systems such as Maglev trains, flywheels and high-speed machinery. Now researchers at the Technical University of Denmark have given this ...

A new study published in Applied Physics Letters highlights how researchers have made huge breakthroughs in magnetic levitation, the use of magnets to cause items to levitate in air for extended ...

Japan, renowned for its technological innovations, is on the brink of revolutionizing the automotive industry with the development of magnetic levitation (maglev) cars. This groundbreaking ...

The FLOAT system employs unpowered magnetic robots that levitate over a 3-layer flexible film track: a graphite layer enables robots to passively float over tracks using diamagnetic levitation, a flex ...

Gravity basically doesn’t factor into a new style of rotation-based magnetic levitation being developed. This spin-stabilized levitation uses a rotating magnet to steady the levitating magnet ...

A test by Italian firm IronLev has provided successful examples of how a magnetic levitation train, or maglev, might work on already existing train tracks. This is a huge boon, as the maglev demo ...
