Magnetically Floating Lounger Chair

January 24th, 2008

I wrote about a ‘floating bed‘ back in July ‘06. It went for a cool $200,000 for a 1/5 scale model. The full scale went for over $1 million. Hoverit Lounger is essentially the same thing, but in an acrylic like lounge chair that you’d fine pool side at the hippest Hollywood hotel pool. It uses opposing magnets and costs a reasonable $11,500. Hoverit plans to release a fully cushioned version in March. The pics don’t really show full flotation but it’s good enough.
