1. HOVERBOARD - NILS GUADAGNIN
1 year ago
The Hoverboard is a project made by Nils guadagnin, a young french artist. This work is born in 2008 for an exhibition named "Back To the future".
It is a copy of the hoverboard from the movie Back to the Future II. Integrated into the board and the plinth is an electromagnetic system which levitates the board. A laser system stabilises the object in the air.
In the making of this work, this artist was thinking about different ways of presenting sculpture. In fact it's a reflexion on the multiple possibilities of how to give a sculpture full spatial autonomy.
The project have been realised with levitation technology of crealev company. crealev.com

    Prototype for the future cars? :D

    Auf jeden Fall würde das, dass Ausbessern der Straßen minimieren und kosten sparen wenn man dieses System für Autos real umsetzen könnte. Ohne Bodenkontakt keine Abnutzung :D

    Is there any chance to develop this technology in the future so the field would be strong enough to carry more than 10 kg?
    Any ideas how to get rid of the base and still make it work?
    Regardless of this issues - still very inspiring - thanks.
