Lexus goes back to the future with superconducting hoverboard
Quote: The Engineer is offering 2-for-1 on videos this week with Lexus revealing tests of an entirely new form of personal transport, plus the story behind its development.
The mode of transport is a hoverboard, a much-imagined concept that has so far not made it too far beyond the realms of science fiction.
The luxury car making division of Toyota has spent the past 18 months attempting to reverse this by developing a hoverboard with scientists from IFW Dresden and evico GmbH, a Dresden-based specialist in magnetic levitation technology. Endquote
