Levitating Objects Using Sounddoi:10.3389/frym.2021.678021Bruce W Drinkwater
Acoustic tractor beams use the power of sound to hold particles in mid-air, and unlike magnetic levitation, they can grab most solids or liquids. For the first time University of Bristol engineers have shown it is possible to stably trap objects larger than the wavelength of sound in an acou...

1. A method of controlling, an object levitating apparatus for levitating an object on a plurality of vibrating bodies with air pressure generated from sound waves produced by the vibrating bodies, wherein each vibrating body is vibrated by a corresponding vibrating apparatus, and each vibrating app...
levitating small objects as all the previous attempts to trap particles larger than the wavelength had been unstable, with objects spinning uncontrollably. This is because rotating sound field transfers some of its spinning motion to the objects causing them to orbit faster and fa...
Therefore, the elongated diaphragm can be vibrated by one transducer in a stable condition with a simple structure.doi:US20030034228 A1Masaki TakasanTatsuya UematsuYoshikazu KoikeUSUS20030034228 * Jul 26, 2002 Feb 20, 2003 Masaki Takasan Apparatus for levitating objects, apparatus for transporting ...
An object levitating apparatus, an object transporting apparatus, and an object levitating process are described which, simultaneous to not placing restrictions on the material and so forth of the objects handled, are able to handle objects having relatively large weights and dimensions, while also ...
