Fundraiser, $ 1 Million For A Hoverboard in 2015 ?




Some people are not afraid of anything! This is also the case of Robert Haleluk trying to raise money to offer the world a Hoverboard in 2015, levitating skateboard cult of the film Back to the Future. By the way it is in 2015 that Marty McFly arrived in the future ... Coincidence?


Unfortunately, it is only a coincidence. While Haleluk looking good to raise a million dollars through a crowdfunding campaign, he did not intend to use any form of magnetic levitation ... but rather good old propellers.

The board is crafted from carbon fiber to keep the weight and eventually with a Lithium-Air developed by IBM and to travel up to 800 kilometers. Our man also dream imagined by scientists at Stanford system that can store energy in a sheet of paper with a special ink integrated via carbon nanotubes and silver nanowires.


But these systems are not able to lift anything, they are too experimental. So, this project smacks a tad scam ... In short, this man wants to raise 1 Million $ to eventually find the technology to create a Hoverboard.The Hoverboard would cost some one $ 10 000 once marketed, the application is free.
