'Flying carpet' of conductive plastic takes flight


BBC News : A miniature magic carpet made of plastic has taken flight in a laboratory at Princeton University.


The 10cm (4in) sheet of smart transparency is driven by "ripple power"; waves of electrical current driving thin pockets of air from front to rear underneath.
