Acoustic manipulation by an ultrasonic phased array provides an entirely new approach to
processes such as coalescence, mixing, separation, and evaporation occurring in the …

The simplest and most commonly used acoustic levitator is comprised of a transmitter and
an opposing reflecting surface. This type of device, however, is only able to levitate objects …

Acoustic levitation is considered one of the most effective noncontact particle manipulation
methods, along with aerodynamic, ferromagnetic, and optical levitation techniques. It is not …

Permeable, mid-air displays, such as those using fog or water mist are limited by our ability
to shape and control the aerosol and deal with two major issues:(1) the size and complexity …

In this paper, we present an approach to realize the levitation of a small object with an
embedded electronic circuit. Luciola is a light-emitting particle with a diameter of 3.5 mm and …

Physically moving real objects via a computational force connects computers and the real
world and has been applied to tangible interfaces and mid-air display. Many researchers …

The authors and colleagues invented an ultrasound-based noncontact tactile display in
2008 and have been developing this technology since then. It is suitable for gesture input …
