US scientists have found a way to levitate the very smallest objects using the forces of quantum mechanics, and say they might use it to help make tiny nanotechnology machines. They said they had ...

Scientists have overcome a major hurdle in the quest to levitate large objects with ultrasound. Previously, researchers had struggled to float an object larger than the wavelength without being very ...

A team of engineers from Clemson University released a very cool video this week, showing how a water drop can be levitated and turned into different shapes, simply through the force of sound. What's ...

How soundwaves make objects levitate in mid-air Reuters Published November 19, 2024 ...

One day soon, we may get to see the flying cars we were promised as citizens of the 21st century. Swiss researchers have figured out how to levitate objects and particles in mid-air—they can even move ...

Scientists are researching a way to move objects using only light which could open the door to interstellar travel. Although the research by a team at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) ...

Researchers have been trying to manipulate objects using sound or light for decades, with some success - with very tiny objects at least. Now a new technique has been developed that to levitate and ...

No smoke, no mirrors, just sound was all scientists needed to levitate objects in midair. NPR reports that researchers at the University of Tokyo have discovered a new levitation technique through ...
