Goal
Achieve levitation / anti-gravity lift using electromagnetic and ultrasonic mechanisms.
Problem
Providing a method to counteract gravity for hovercraft or lift-craft applications.
Concept Summary
The device combines high-voltage Tesla-coil circuitry, ultrasonic piezoelectric sound generation, rotating textured metal discs, and magnetic elements. By tuning voltage, frequency and ultrasonic vibration to resonance, the system is claimed to produce a levitating force that can lift the device for several seconds.
Principles
- Electrostatics
- High-voltage discharge
- Resonance between electric fields and ultrasonic vibrations
- Acoustic levitation
- Magnetic vortex formation
- Tesla coil operation
Scientific Domains
Materials
- copper (brushes)
- stainless steel (textured metal)
- aluminum (foil layer)

Applications
- Hovercraft / lift-craft
- Aerospace propulsion concepts
- Scientific research on levitation
Claimed Performance
Device was shown levitating for several seconds in video demonstrations; lift-craft can hover and be guided.
Experimental Evidence
Video recordings show the device hanging in the air for several seconds after disconnecting the starter battery; engineers have recreated parts of the schematic and observed similar behavior.
Replication Status
No independent, peer-reviewed replication reported; only anecdotal attempts by hobbyists and a small engineering team.
Limitations
- Exact composition of the "special metal" not disclosed
- No quantitative voltage/current specifications
- Reliance on high-voltage circuitry (safety hazard)
- Lack of independent verification
- Unclear scalability
Red Flags
- Claims of anti-gravity without peer-reviewed evidence
- Potential pseudoscientific language
- Absence of reproducible data or independent testing
