You can see what kind of vehicle the hover board "Hendo" is from the following movie.

Hendo Hoverboard: The World's First Hoverboard - YouTube


This is the prototype of Hover board Hendo. It seems that prototype has been created 18 times so far.


Looking from the top like this, the width is wider than the ordinary skateboard.


Hendo floats using the four hover engines on the bottom, but this hover engineLenz's lawTo apply a strong magnetic field to suspend Hendo.


It is as high as 1 inch (2.54 cm) from the ground floating.


The design drawing looks something like this, the round part is a hover engine, the red part in the center of the main body is a safety switch, and the battery is embedded in the center of the main body.


You can also see the actual prototype Hendo riding.


Even if a person gets on, it is possible to float firmly.


Looking at the way you are actually traveling with the skate lamp, you are moving to slide on the ramp and its movement is quite distinctive.

Movement is quite stable even when people are on board.


Where I am very concerned about what ride is comfortable.


Hendo is designed to be able to move on its own, and it is also possible to drive without touching the hands with a dedicated remote control. However, it is also possible to use this as a skateboard sense like a movie. Also, since it is necessary for the ground to be non-magnetic for now to float Hendo, a dedicated hover park is also planned.


While Hendo is currently recruiting equity at Kickstarter, about 320,000 dollars (about 35 million yen) exceeding the target amount of 250 thousand dollars (about 27 million yen) has already gathered, It is almost certain. Hendo sold via Kickstarter is limited to only 10 units, which was able to get if you invested 10,000 dollars (about 1080,000 yen), but all the investment funds are already filled.

However, there are plans called "WHITEBOX DEVELOPER KIT" and "WHITE BOX +" that can get a square floating box loaded with engine technology used for Hendo, and in the case of "WHITE BOX +", an application that controls the box is available It seems to be. "WHITEBOX DEVELOPER KIT" can be obtained from a contribution of 299 dollars (about 32,000 yen), and in case of "WHITE BOX +" it can be obtained from the investment of 899 dollars (about 97,000 yen).

You can understand what WHITE BOX is like by shooting the following movie.


WHITE BOX can also see and disassemble the engine part inside.


You can also float a model etc. by attaching multiple WHITE BOX.


Actually installing a mini version of the hover engine cultivated in Hendo as a model ......


You can also float like this.


In addition, WHITE BOX + can also use WHITE BOX by using the application.


The deadline for Hendo's contribution is 16:59 on December 15th.
