This device suspends a metal globe using magnetic fields.
This is my newest plaything. It suspends a small metal globe using carefully controlled magnetic fields.
< geekspeak > The globe has a permanent magnet at the north pole. The support has an electromagnet, with a soft iron core, which is enough to support the globe at a distance of about a half inch. A small electromagnet augments or diminishes the field of the permanent magnet, allowing the support to control the distance of the globe.
This represents an electrodynamic example of an "inverted pendulum." It's really no different from the systems used in "hoverboards" and Segways, which must keep the point of support below the rider's center of gravity, which is analogous to supporting a broom by balancing it in your hand.
In this case, if the globe drops even a millimeter, the current to the electromagnet increases enough to reverse the descent of the globe and to return it to its proper station. Only modern microprocessors can react quickly enough to keep the globe positioned and motionless.

The amazing Flyboard Air is a jet-powered hoverboard which has a top speed of 93mph, while also having a 10-minute endurance and a load capacity of 225lb (102kg). It was invented by Franky Zapata who is seen here demonstrating it at the 2019 Fête Aérienne Le Temps Des helices (Aerial Festival – The Time of the Propellers).

Liam let me have a go on his Hoverboard and I think within a short time even I could get quite good at it. Liam works for Google on their YouTube project and he was telling me what a great company they are to work for, in the short time I spoke to him he convinced me that I want a job there because of their great benefits and flexible working conditions, lets face it we spend a lot of time at work we might as well enjoy it.
I did tell Liam that I would put his photo on Flickr that night but sorry Liam its taken me two weeks to get round to it.
7 years after the fall of The Organization:
A Silver armored dodge charger is being shot at. A knight wearing a cyan colored tunic while riding a motorcycle, is also being shot at. A guy on a hoverboard with a unique gun holstered, is also being shot at. The hoverboard guy zigs and zags to avoid being shot at. a hover-copter is flying around up in the air. The guy in a grey coat speaks over coms.
Osmund: *Over coms* What did you do?
Biker: *Over coms* Oh you know, just what I'm good at, causing a distraction.
Derek: *Over Coms whiles zigging and zagging* you want the good news or bad news?
Osmund: *Over coms* Just tell me what happened.
Derek: *Over coms* We found last of Nighttellengence, and we caught their attention.
Biker: We are being shot at by their assault drones.
Osmund: *Over coms* Well those drones have attracted the attention of the police. You three need to get out of there asap.
Derek: *Over coms* I told you not to kill one of their members when we tried to surprise attack them.
Biker: *Over coms* I saved you from getting killed. Hey old man, you keeping up?
Old man: *Over coms* I have a name!
Just then the armored silver charger crashes through a wall and takes out every Assault drone. the car swerves but manages to get straightened out. The 6 hover cars, all alike, convert their headlights into gun barrels and they shoot. one of the many bullets hit Derek's hoverboard, causing him to veer off and crash into the street. The knight seeing this, he maneuvers towards Derek. As soon as he arrives in front of Derek the hover cars surround them and land. The armored charger shocked by the events rams into a building. The old man stomps on the breaks, the building collapses on top of the car. Osmund watching the stopping, is starting to worry. After the dust settling from the building falling down, The old man looks at the pile of rubble wondering how he's safely out side of the car and the building's area of falling.
Two people step out of 5 of the hover cars. Then a person clad in all black with a cloak and mask on, steps out of the final hover car. The Knight ready's his sword. The cloaked figure lets the cloak slide off of them, revealing two unique long swords with a pistol grip style handle. The ten field operatives close in around Derek and the Knight. The Fighting starts.
Up in the Hover-copter Osmund is using the camera to watch the battle. Footsteps approach Osmund, who doesn't notice.
Rainer: What an interesting battle.
Osmund: *shaken* Gah, I hate you sneaking up on me.
Rainer: Well 2 years after the towers fell, Helix, or what's left of it, agreed to join Archicorp. You should be used to this.
Osmund: And sorrel just passed away 6months ago, thanks to Nightellegence.
Rainer: What do you know about Project Omega?
Osmund: *mutes coms coming from the hover-copter* I've seen research and formulas back during the A.I. Wars. Why?
Rainer: What else do you know about it?
Osmund: something about using science to create a god-like being.
Rainer: Back when i was a human, there was a prophecy. over the many years I've been around, its been written in journals and even attempting to figure out how to go through with it. However the A.I. Wars were the un-official testing phase to create it. In this prophecy, its describes someone. The name is Omega, The Harbinger of The End of Times. Originally, it is said the Gods chose a great warrior, to grant ultimate power to. You ran into one of the two that seems to have been very successfully. One was corrupted by that power. The other was marked.
Osmund: *Eyes widen and looks at the screen* You mean.... *Touches the screen brining up a file* Ragnar.
Rainer: He was marked by someone that was chosen by the gods to mark him.
Osmund: But he is old.
Rainer: And yet he survived a building collapsing on his car. *Walks away*
The masked person sits idly by as The Knight kills the rest of the operatives. Derek unholsters his gun and shooting the masked person in the mask.
Markus: *Takes off his mask*You missed.
Derek: What are you doing brother?
Hiro: Why would you join the enemy?
Markus: It's hard to explain. *Runs as soon as sirens can be heard*
Hiro: I'll go.
Derek: *Holds arm with gun out to stop Hiro* No, we need someone here to distract the cops. I need to borrow your motorcycle. *Hops on while holstering gun and peels off
Hiro: *Smiles* No we are talking,
Ragnar: *Chases after Derek and Markus*
Ragnar runs at the speed that Derek drives. A ways away, Derek flips the bike over a guard rail. He rolls when getting launched and stands up shooting at Markus. He throws a golden knife at Derek. Ragnar shows up right behind Markus, as Derek slouches against the wall bleeding out. He watches as Ragnar Snaps Marku's Neck. Right after that Ragnars cyber arm stops glowing and it doesn't move. Derek's fangs and nails grow as his angerly takes out the knife. Rainer runs up as Derek is taking his last few breaths.
Rainer: *Holding Derek* No... Damn it why am I too late?
Derek: *Taking final breath* It's.... *Dies*
Rainer: *whispers in Dereke's ear* I'll see you at Vampire Mountain. *Sets Derek down and runs away*
Derek emerges from the spring pond on top of Vampire Mountain. A bald muscular Vampire with scars all over his face welcomes Derek to his new life. Rainers stops to feed, after smelling Derek's fresh blood. He arrives as the sun just hits Derek, who doesn't burn.
