In the year 2015 finally we have a real rideable hoverboard.
Lexus has released a teaser showing a stylish board that levitates about one inch over the ground.
How does it work?
Here is the physics behind the hoverboard:The surface is probably made with hidden magnets underneath or another method to produce a magnetic field. The superconductor material inside the board, when cooled by liquid nitrogen, generates a contrary magnetic field powerful enough to make it levitate over the surface.
The car-maker company created an advanced technology product to generate viral advertisement that will position the Lexus brand as innovative and cool.
