Argonne scientists across several disciplines have combined forces to create a new process for testing and predicting the effects of high temperatures on refractory oxides. That’s where refractory ...

The Slinky? A Rubik’s Cube? Newton’s Cradle? None of those tried-and-true office time-wasters can even begin to compare with the awesomeness that is this ultrasonic levitation machine that can ...

Rockwell Automation expects to advance automated conveyors and processing technologies into the next generation. It anticipates capabilities such as independent transfer of products between machines.

With a clever design, researchers have solved eddy-current damping in macroscopic levitating systems, paving the way for a wide range of sensing technologies. Levitation has long been pursued by stage ...

What does the future of construction look like? Autonomous machines buzzing around a building site? Giant 3D printers extruding walls and floors? Looking forward even farther, researchers at the ...

A tiny cube floating and flipping in midair sounds like something straight out of "Harry Potter," but Harvard physicist Subir Sachdev doesn't need magic to levitate objects. Sachdev performed a ...

And one man’s Kickstarter campaign wants to make it a reality. Richard Haberkern—an inventor, cinematographer, and photographer—has created an ultrasonic levitation machine, or what he calls Sonic ...

[Jacob] has put a slightly new twist on the levitating ball trick with his ping-pong ball levitation machine. We’ve all seen magnetic levitation systems before. Here on Hackaday, [Caleb] built a ...
