Best Eye-Catcher Ever - Levitating Box
Channel: Dascanova
Date: 2013-05-27

We made and posted this video only due to big success at the international fair in Germany. The visitor's feedback to this levitating "eye-catcher" box was highly positive and they made many pictures, even after they discovered our construction in the palette and under the carpet. The magic illusion disappeared, nevertheless we got lot of compliments as "cool", "excellent", "brilliant" or even "the best eye-catcher ever" that we also used as a title of this video. Another often used comment was "what the hell..."

This part of attracting people starts at 0:00 and ends at 1:24.

The idea of "Levitating Box" came under time pressure shortly before the Ligna 2013 fair in Germany started. The inspiration came from our field of wood-based panels -- we have been developing technologies for lighter boards. Actually so light, that they could possibly fly. So, we simply show our vision of flying lightweight panels on a palette. Our friends, mentioned in the video at the end, helped us to solve the problem "how to produce it" and with the realisation itself. The crucial detail of the "magic trick" was the "invisible" connection to the ground, because we could not drill any hollow. It was not our goal to present some magic and we did not want to compete with David Copperfield or Harry Potter. Therefore, we completely presented the "secret" construction in details at the fair and here at YouTube as well.

How to make a "levitating box" is revealed in a reversed time recording from 1:25 to 2:30.

Additionally, we used the "Levitating Box" as a symbol of unlimited "Magic Power of Innovation...". On the metal tube, holding the whole box, there is the second part of the slogan "...Having Feet on the Ground" (not showed in video). We know it is hard to believe but we are serious scientists in the real life and the Dascanova Company owns more than 20 patents or patent applications worldwide -- except patent on levitation :)
