Hendo Hoverboard: The World's First Hoverboard!

Finally, fakes apart, the hoverboard is real. They released a youtube video which went viral last week and it was legit and real.


Now let me break down the theories on how it actually levitates or floats. There are two possible theories which are popping up in my mind right now, electromagnetic levitation like that MAGLEV train we saw before and magnetic repulsion
with a material.

The board definitely seems to use some kind of battery and if you notice the video, the board always hovers over a specific material. If they use a battery some around 200 - 300 watts it would be enough to cause electromagnetic fluctuation. But, by doing it, it will leave the board completely frictionless and without any control. They must have some additional coil to control the flow of electricity.

If it is some magnetic repulsion or fluctuation with the material it should throw the board up or flip it. but surprisingly it doesn't. I have no idea what the material it's hovering above maybe. Maybe the material makes all the magic. Seeing the composure of the hoverboard, it looks complex.

But on the other hand, they make a product called White Box which is a box which is white, hovers over that particular material, seeing that i think the material only matters and not complex theories. The White box is not out yet and once i have an hands on with it, we'll be able to explain better.

If you have any theories, please leave in the comments!
