Levitating sensors are moving from science-fiction imagery to practical laboratory tools, promising a new generation of instruments that can feel forces so faint they border on the gravitational pull ...

With the help of an optical device and laser beams, researchers at ETH Zurich have succeeded in keeping such objects almost completely motionless in levitation. This is significant when it comes to ...

A research team from the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (OIST), on Friday, announced that it had achieved a major milestone in levitation technology by eliminating eddy-current damping in ...
