The Sonic Levitation Machine uses an ultrasonic transducer to produce an ultrasonic wave of 28,000 cycles per second with a wavelength of 12.14286 millimeters, which it beams at a reflector situated at the top of the rig. Once the wave is set, you can drop any tiny objects onto its path to watch the item magically float in mid-air. It uses 70-watts of power to produce the effect.
Since this is designed as a desk toy, you can’t really float large objects like a CLM Floating Shelf. Tiny items like morsels of food, tiny plastic toys, and crumpled up bits of paper should be fair game, however. Oh yeah, it’s designed as an open source hardware, so those who pledge for a unit will get the complete plans to the transducer for use in their own levitating projects.
A Kickstarter campaign is currently running to fund the Sonic Levitation Machine. Pledges to reserve a unit starts at $119.
