Arcaboard Lets You Levitate For 6 Minutes - New Hoverboard From Arca Space Is Here
The Romanian Company, Arca Space has recently launched its newest, “Arcaboard†which has already gained immense popularity as it enables one to actually hover in the air for up to 6 minutes! Flying in the air is everyone's dream and it may now well come true, if one is ready to shell out $20,000.

The company has come up with a technology that uses 36 electric fans, giving enough upward thrust to levitate a person weighing 110 Kg for 3 minutes and the levitation time gets doubled if the person weighs 80 kg. After every run, it requires 6 hours of constant charging.
Sources confirmed that Arca Space will start shipping Arcaboard in the US from April 2016. The gadget has managed to get positive reviews from technology critics and is believed to be much more advanced than any previously made two wheeler self-balancing scooter aka “Conventional Hoverboardsâ€.
The only drawback is its high cost and poor battery life. Insiders confirmed that the Arcaboard is made of light composite materials. The specifications include a dimension of 145cmx76cmx15cm (LxWxH) and an input power of 230,000 W. The hoverboard’s electric fans spin at 45,000 rotations per minute and provide an output power of 272 horsepower.
It also boasts of a smart stability system. However, an additional cost of $4500 is needed for an add-on recharging dock which will charge the hoverboard in just 35 minutes.

In a media interview, ARCA Space Corporation CEO, Dumitru Popescu said that the idea of a levitating hoverboard originated from Chris Lang’s (company’s chief operating officer) youngest son's suggestions to make a hoveboard to easily climb over rockey terrain. Popescu added that he believed ArcaBoard to be the most powerful personal vehicle ever created which suits their tagline ‘Engineering the Future’. He added that the vehicle would provide futuristic innovation and comfort.
Like most smart heavy electronic applications such as cars, fridges and air conditioners, the hoverboard is made in such a way that it can be controlled with smart phone apps developed by the company for Android and iOS.
Arcaboard also automatically adjusts the weight and gives consistent performance, depending on the load. The height above the ground is always kept constant and the vehicle is equipped with a high performance stability system. The system consists of an option, which switches off the automatic stability system and can be controlled by using one's center of gravity and body movements.
ArcaBoard is also stuffed with onboard sensors that keep it 30 cm above the ground and limits its speed to 20 km/h. It also has an inertial stabilization system that automates the flying level and can be controlled using a mobile phone app. The board determines its direction of traversal according to the smart phone’s tilt angle.
The company has recently launched its official video and it seems that it has something truly amazing and revolutionary to offer! Technology bloggers from all over the world believe that the Arcaboard is definitely a positive step towards future innovation. However, to make it successful in the market, it needs some vital modifications with respect to its cost and battery life, which will be hopefully incorporated in subsequent versions.
