Japanese carmaker Lexus has been developing a hoverboard and its almost as cool as the one from Back To The Future. They have released a series of videos
to show how it is developing.
In the video below Pro skater Ross McGouran tests the hoverboard prototype, we see the device levitate a few inches off the ground with the help of
“liquid nitrogen-cooled superconductors and permanent magnets”
to create magnetic levitation.
McGouran describes the experience as feeling like
“I’m starting all over again from the beginning … There’s no friction underneath you at all and I’m forgetting what I’m actually doing — floating on air.”
