Using sound to get objects to float works well if a single particle is levitated, but it causes multiple particles to collapse into a clump in mid-air. Physicists at the Institute of Science and ...

A study on the levitation technique titled "High-speed acoustic holography with arbitrary scattering objects" has been published in the journal Science Advances. Researchers from the University ...

Acoustic levitation employs high-frequency sound waves to suspend objects without physical contact, presenting a viable alternative to traditional mechanical handling methods. At its core, this ...

Precisely sculpted sound waves have been used to levitate components and tiny droplets of quick-setting glue to build complex structures piece by piece in mid-air. The approach may have practical ...

(Nanowerk News) Like an invisible pair of tweezers, sound waves can be used to levitate tiny objects in the air. While DIY acoustic levitation kits can be found online, the technique has important ...

Advances in technology have led to the miniaturization of many mechanical, electronic, chemical and biomedical products, and with that, an evolution in the way these tiny components and parts are ...

Transporting miniaturized components with speed and precision remains a persistent challenge for industries operating at microscopic scales. Friction from conveyor belts, rollers, and other mechanical ...
