Originally developed by Noah Jafferis in the lab of James Sturm at the Princeton Institute for the Science and Technology of Materials, the project emerged from research into printing electronics on flexible plastics . Ionic - Magic Carpet
The technology requires complex sensors to prevent high-frequency deformations that make control difficult . Alternative "Magic Carpet" Technology Alternative "Magic Carpet" Technology It is a 4-inch-wide
It is a 4-inch-wide sheet of conductive plastic that uses "ripple power" to create waves of electrical current . Key Features of the Princeton Ionic Magic Carpet
The "Ionic - Magic Carpet" likely refers to the developed by Noah Jafferis at Princeton University , which uses ionic wind technology to lift and propel a thin plastic sheet. It is often described as a "magic carpet" due to its quiet, flat appearance that moves by creating ripples, similar to a swimming motion or a hovercraft .
